Did somebody say National Doughnut Day? 🍩

This photograph is a view of the Doughnut Corporation of America factory building located in Ellicott City, Maryland. The factory was a flour mill and cereal plant that produced the Downyflake blend used in the production of doughnuts, and was one of the area's primary employers. The Doughnut Corporation of America was founded after World War I by Adolph Levitt (1875–1955), the inventor of the doughnut machine. The factory changed hands over the years, and when it closed in 2020, it was the last active flour mill in Maryland.

When Motti Margalit first came to the United States from Israel in the late ’90s, he didn’t know much about what his new life would look like, or how long he would be here.

What he did know is that his wife and first child would be at the center of it, and that he wanted to continue to work in the same business as his parents — the bakery business.

So, he got a job at Pariser’s Baker, a Jewish Baltimore institution since 1889. Now, almost 30 years after that move, he is an integral part of that institution’s history as the current owner.
