Ridgefield cake bakeries, Part 1--TomTom's

About 6 years ago, there were few places in Ridgefield from which to purchase baked desserts. But I'm happy to report that we now have some wonderful stores/restaurants that sell cakes, cookies, and pies.

If you want to order a cake for a special occasion, or pick one up in a hurry, or are in the mood for a cookie or cannoli or cupcake with a cup of coffee, right behind his restaurant at 417 Main Street, down a flight of stairs, is Tom Tom's restaurant of food-to-go and bakery, owned by Tom Salemo.

The pictures on the left will give you an idea of what goodies Tom has in store for you. We've frequently seen Ridgefielders coming downstairs in the afternoon to pick up something delicious. And we've bought their wonderful cakes for our children's (and grandchildren's) birthdays.

So if you need a cake or pie for a celebration, stop by. If you just feel like a cookie and some coffee, there are tables and chairs where you can sit and enjoy a snack.

I'll be doing another post soon about Tom Tom's bagels (fabulous!) breads, and his upstairs restaurant and his sandwich cafe. All part of the same restaurant!

TomTom's is a Ridgefield Chamber of Commerce member.

His phone number, if you want to call ahead, is 203-244-5289. And check out their new website at http://www.tomtoms.net.
