I would agree with Ursy, that getting a candy thermometer is high on the list, if you are going to make candies. In the baking and pastry program at my school, you are required to have a digital thermometer, and for at least one class, a candy thermometer. On the culinary side, most people use a dial thermometer, that goes up to 220F, though some do use digital ones.

Sun, I have heard rumors that they might eventually build a new kitchen, though I don't know if that is true or not. It would be helpful, in a lot of ways, though. Currently, the baking and pastry program does not have any classrooms at all. We all simply meet in the kitchen, on the pastry side, and hold our class there. I don't really care for that, but that is the way that things are, there, for now.
