Discover the Heart of Romanian Baking – Cozonac & Walnut Cookies Masterclass
Step into the world of Romanian tradition with our Traditional Cozonac Masterclass, a warm and festive hands-on workshop led by Chef Geanina, inspired by her family recipes passed down through generations.

Alongside, you’ll bake Romanian Walnut Cookies, delicate biscuit shells filled with chocolate, honey, rum, and crushed walnuts — a nostalgic treat that pairs perfectly with your freshly baked Cozonac.
