From croissant making to colorful cake decorating, you can transport yourself and your mom to the patisseries of France or the display windows of professional cake shops. With a professional chef by your side, you will learn baking techniques and culinary secrets that will take your baking to the next level.

Pamper your mom in a custom perfume class

Moms deserve a bit of luxury, and perfume making classes in NYC are the perfect blend of personal, creative, and opulent. Rather than giving her a store-bought perfume, these unique gift experiences for mom would offer her the opportunity to discover and express her unique style by creating her very own signature scent. Additionally, it's also an educational experience where she can learn about different ingredients, scents, and the process of perfume making.
