Let the reading device set the size of the font. All readers have the ability to increase it, so don't specify it.

For bigger letters style them as 1.1 em to 1.5 em. Good not to go too overboard without knowing what device you particularly want it to look good on.

The foundation of epubs is HTML. So there is no getting around it unless you want to work in a word processor then feed it into calibre and be content with what calibre does or can be made to do. Atlantis Word Processor and Jutoh allow you to work in more familiar surroundings and put out an epub. But AWP publishes the epub, you can't edit the output epub in AWP.
