Chefs wear big, puffy hats for two reasons—to signify their rank in the kitchen hierarchy and to hide the "signature" spice they invented by mixing cinnamon with gravel. Learn kitchen secrets with this Groupon.

An accomplished cake decorator teaches bakers of all skill levels to decorate cakes with fondant, a smooth and pliable frosting used in cake decoration. Optional colors, polka dots, and stripes add interest to the cakes, and sculpted pieces such as bows and flowers add three-dimensional flair. All necessary materials are included with the class. Find the fondant class schedule here, though additional class dates may be available. Current classes are scheduled for October 20–21 and October 28 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., and Friday, October 26, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

New Jersey Sugar Art Academy

To help sugar artists of all skill levels take their desserts to new heights, Francesca Elmenshawy, owner of Francesca’s Cakery, joined accomplished cake designer Silvina Barboza to teach intensive baking courses. Though their 10- to 12-student classes range from Baking 101 to an intensive course held in Spanish, most of the lesson plans fall somewhere in the middle. Fondant classes, for instance, introduce the versatile cake-decorating and sculpting medium to cake decorators who prefer their art to be edible. A three-part series on gum-paste flowers targets lessons to specific skill levels, teaching beginners the basics of rolling and cutting material for the dessert flowers. The hands-on, accessible classes earned a mention on Food Babbles, a blog whose writer described the teacher as "a gracious hostess."
