On a star-shaped neighbourhood of $a$, a <smooth function> satisfies
$$
f(x)-f(a)=\sum_i(x_i-a_i)g_i(x),\qquad g_i(x)=\int_0^1\partial_i f(a+t(x-a))\,dt.
$$
The <fundamental theorem of calculus> along the segment proves the identity, and <differentiation under the integral sign> proves smoothness of the coefficients.
