Madonia Bakery on Arthur Avenue is celebrating 100 years of business.
Owner Peter Madonia is the third generation of his family business. He says fresh ingredients, consistency and being a part of Little Italy's magic is what keeps customers coming back to break bread.
Every cookie and bread is handmade from scratch, with old family recipes and favorites like olive bread, along with modern new recipes to keep generations rushing through the door.
So while the neighborhood has changed over the past 100 years, some things have stayed the same. Whether you're craving cannolis or would love a fresh loaf, Madonia's owners say they hope to be a part of your family's future.
