It’s always a pleasure visiting this Kercem state-of-the-art bakery and gelateria. David’s Bakery Gozo is always filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread and new flavours of gelato to sample but beyond that, it’s inspiring and joyful being around the Mercieca family who know and embody their brand with such passion.
Mamma Mia is Malta’s first vitamin and mineral fortified bread designed to support women’s wellbeing. If you are regular to Gozo In The House, you will have come across David’s Bakery and Mamma Mia as the brilliantly aligned sponsors of our GITH Woman series.
Next year will be a significant year for David’s Bakery Gozo as they celebrate their 30th birthday. In 1992 David and his wife Michelina Mercieca started baking with a humble 25kg of flour per day, fast forward to the now and this has increased to a whopping 4 tonnes of flour every day! However, the quantity will never take priority over quality for this family. They understand and value the importance of nourishing the body with real and tasty food and aim to keep additives and preservatives at bay. Over the years David and Michelina’s sons Manuel and Mark have driven the business forward with this philosophy in mind and applied innovation, honesty, and pride to their work. They listen and respond to what the community asks for and deliver wholesome baked goods around the Maltese Archipelago.

After receiving many requests for a fortified loaf, the David’s Bakery team rose to the challenge. Mamma Mia has been years in the making with much research, studying, and trials to create a product they are truly proud of. What really sets this bread apart from other brands is the use of only natural ingredients, there are no nasty preservatives, additives, or GMO ingredients. It’s refreshing to read a short ingredient list where you recognise each item and trust what you are eating. Although formulated with women’s wellbeing in mind, Mamma Mia has been a hit with the whole family!

The Taste Test
I love bread but unfortunately, it just doesn't like me. In fact, I have been trying to stop eating it for the last five years! I always feel fairly bloated and heavy after eating bread and so when I heard about Mamma Mia, from David's Bakery Gozo, I was excited to know more. I loved how it has been especially formulated for women, fortified and jammed packed with vitamins and minerals and the taste is super! The best thing is that it didn't leave me feeling like I've overdone the carbs. My only issue is, my husband really likes it too. Bah! Andrea Britton
