  None of tat. I was an avid bread n cake hobbyist then. Ready availability of ingredients from Phoon Huat's store kickstarted my interest to experiment.
  
  Word of advice for starters: always start with understanding the science of baking. Learn from mistakes in live classes than your kitchen. Keep a scrapbook of recipe and learnt/observed baking tips. Get insights from experts.
  Work as an apprentice in serveral bakeries if you're really serious about becoming a good baker.

  the cream cheese can be found in supermarkets de cheese/butter section(like ntuc).
  
  the jurong one i not very sure. where u live? if u find all the outlets not easy to find,then i suggest u go the sembawang store. after u come out of the sembawang mrt station, u can straightaway see it in front on ur left.

  Phoon Huat got two types of courses. One is demo type where you mostly get to see only and minimal hand-ons. Good if you have some background skills. Available main in shops.
  Another is the workshop where you really get to bake and learn. Held at Sim avenue or Sim drive, their HQ.
  Got the info ard 1/2 year back when i called them, nt sure if there is any changes.
  
  If you learn from people, you may learn something which may not be found in the receipes. eg how to separate eggs, flour need to be seived b4 used, when making dough, egg to be added last, letting the dough to "rest: in fridge.
  
  For oven get some thing which is manageable size. It shd cost ard $300 plus. Tefal is a good buy.
  
  I do bake, learnt from mum the basic but the tips from a bakery owner really improve my techniques.
