Biscotti and Beyond: Family Experience - A Trailblazers Experience (Nov. 21)

from €0.00

What to expect

Journey with us to the Tuscan countryside where we will explore Tuscan traditions with hands-on engaging experiences. Fall is the perfect season to play outdoors with family and friends, why not learn while you're at it! This experience will warm your heart and make memories that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

Once you get there we will give a brief introduction and tour of the space before you head to the kitchen to make one of Tuscany's most famous dishes, cantucci, or biscotti di prato. In other countries cantucci is called biscotti, but in Italy, biscotti means cookies in general

After you put the biscotti in the oven, you will make your way outside, where you will learn how to play the traditional tuscan game palla. This is a game that dates back to the middle ages and is a bit like tennis.

Then you will wind down with a cozy fire and guitar. You will nibble on your biscotti and a beautiful charcuterie board that is provided before you head home for dinner.
