History

Established in 1966.

Viktor Benês, a baker from Czechoslovakia, immigrated to America in 1920 and established his first bakery in Chicago. He built a reputation for fine European pastries and yet was hungry for more. In 1946, Viktor Benês sold his bakery and moved to Southern California, where he continued to bake quality pastries. In 1973, Viktor Benês passed down his recipe for success to two entrepreneurial bakers from Italy, Hugo Mamolo and Ruggero Terzuolo.
