Firstly, you may like to find out what kind of courses would your wife be able to commit to. Some cake decorating courses are held over an extended period of time, while some courses are conducted in a day. Basic cake decorating classes includes piping, icing while more advanced cake decorating classes offer creating art out of fondant, marzipan or sugar.
Gordon Institute of TAFE has a couple of cake decorating courses, including Cake Decorating – Creative Celebration Cakes and Cake Decorating – Creative Floral Design.
Both courses are suitable for the home cake decorator or the aspiring entrepreneur.
The Creative Celebration Cakes course is slightly more general and would be a good starting point for a beginner. All the tools you need are included in the course price and you can keep them at the end.
