I am looking for a "crash course" so to speak in baking/cake decorating. I have heard of the master's Wilton 2 week classes but was wondering if there are any more programs like that? I don't really want to take classes all semester at a community college. Thanks!

Have you checked out some local colleges in your area?

You could look at culinary schools in your area - some of them will offer a pastry program. You could also look at individual instructors who have their own schools, they will often have some accelerated classes. Nicholas Lodge and Eward Notter both come to mind. There is also a french pastry school in Chicago that has a program, if I remember correctly. Finally, I would look into ICES (international cake exploration society) - they will list all kinds of classes and training seminars in cake stuff.
