Sunday 30.3 Meet the producer: Sicilian Almost cookies workshop & Colomba Tasting | Group 1

It's finally here! Experience an exclusive hands-on workshop with the masters of Sicilian pastry: Nuova Dolceria from Siracusa, Sicily!

Meet the Maestri:

• Franco Manuele – Master Pastry Chef
• Salvo Manuele – His son, next-generation pastry artisan
• Alexandra & Noam – Your unmissable La Bottega hosts

This unique event is divided into two mouthwatering parts:

1) Sicilian Almond Cookies Workshop & Tasting

Franco & Salvo will guide you through the art of making this wonderful treat so it can become a tradition in your home too!
 You’ll prepare your own batch, enjoy fresh-baked cookies on-site, and take some home!

2) Colomba Tasting – An Easter Delight

While our cookies bake, La Bottega will be filled with their irresistible aroma as we dive into a special Colomba tasting experience. 

Colomba is Italy’s beloved Easter cake, similar to Panettone but shaped like a dove, featuring a soft, airy dough enriched with butter, eggs, and citrus, topped with a crunchy almond glaze.

Our Sicilian master chefs will:
 - Unveil the unique characteristics of three types of Colomba (Classic, Dark Chocolate, Pistachio)
-  Demonstrate a special tasting technique to appreciate their texture and flavors
 Introduce an exclusive Colomba-based Tiramisu—a surprise twist on a classic!

Bonus: Workshop participants enjoy a 10% discount on all in shop purchases during the event—including Colomba!

Whether you're a pastry enthusiast or simply love exceptional Italian sweets, this is your chance to learn from the best, taste rare delights, and take home your own handcrafted Sicilian cookies.

 Limited spots available to keep it intimate!
