Hi Mack: Went there plenty of times for my grandmother, everything was good, she loved their rye bread and I loved the bread, the fresh bologna with mustard sandwiches she made for me for a Saturday lunch.

HI MAC....I BELIEVE THE PARAMOUNT BAKERY WAS STARTED BY OUR NEIGHBORS ON MOTT ST. SOMETIME IN THE 1930'S. I CAN RECALL BUYING MANY DESERTS INCLUDING WEEDING CAKES AND ITALIAN PASTERIES AND A LOT OF OTHER GOODIES. BEST REGARDS.

Hi Joe And Ralph:)
This was my favorite bakery for cakes:)

Best Bakery for Cannoli
Landolfi's

Best Bakery for Rolls
New Colonial, then Barberos

Best Bakery for Bagels
Kramers


But all the Burg area bakeries were good. How spoiled we were:)

I can't remember the owner's name, but he married the Bonnani girl from 119 Mott St.

Paramount was the "go to" sheet cake bakery.
