By JENNIFER AMATO Staff Writer

^ NORTH BRUNSWICK — Although Giuseppe Scala is 81 years old, his family can’t keep him out of the kitchen — or the car. Scala continues to bake every Saturday and on special occasions at Scala Bakery in North Brunswick. He commutes from his home in Brooklyn, N.Y. “1 like to stay involved and also help my son. I like the atmosphere of working and I like to bake,” he said. When Scala first started baking, he would work 12 to 14 hours a day. On holidays, the hours were even longer — he was sometimes found napping on the 100-pound bags of flour, according to his daughter, Carmela Scala-Paladino. Scala was bom in San Paolo Belsito, a small province of Naples, Italy, on March 19, 1933. One of seven brothers and a sister, he was forced to stop school at a young age due to World War II but then went on to work in a food market until he was 18, Scala-Paladino said. “During the war, we were not able to go to school, so when the opportunity came up my older brother was taught how to bake, and then he taught the rest of us how to bake,” her father said.

Constitution. After an eight-day ocean journey, he arrived at the 42nd Street port in New York City on Oct. 15, 1951. His brother Pasquale, who learned how to bake in Italy, took him under his wing. They worked together in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, for more than three years. Exactly four years after Guiseppe Scala came to the U.S., on Oct. 15, 1955, they opened their first Scala Bros. Pas­ try Shop at 522 Metropolitan Ave., Brooklyn. A third brother, Luigi, then came over from Italy and joined them along with their sister Stella, who worked the front of the bakery. In 1956, the Scalas opened another bak­ ery in Bayshore, Long Island. The bakeries were doing well, so their other brothers Nicola, Guido and Orlando came from Italy, too. They opened their third location at 7017 Fort Hamilton Parkway, Brooklyn, in 1960.
