Giuseppe Balasco traveled back and forth from Naples, Italy to the United States shortly after his service in the military. On his final trip in 1923, he was accompanied by his two youngest children of five and his wife. He was in his early twenties, and was looking to provide a better life and future for his family. 

Shortly after arriving in the United States, Giuseppe gained employment in Providence, RI at a local bakery where he learned to bake. His only source of commute was his own two feet. During his travels, to and from his job, he developed a friendship with a local banker. Over time Giuseppe had expressed, to his friend the banker, his desire to own his own bakery someday. 

During this time, Giuseppe and his wife gave birth to a son, Giuseppe XXXXXXXX Balasco. 

One day in his travels to work at the bakery, the banker approached him and mentioned a local bakery for sale not too far away in Barrington RI. Four brick walls and a bread oven, his American dream, Vienna Bakery.

In 1935, Vienna Bakery was established. Baking bread, both early morning and at 4 O'clock, his children delivered to local neighbors door to door. Some paid in vegetables, some with chickens. The heart and the start of the history of Vienna Bakery.
