Ridgewood Chamber Spotlight: Yummy Tummy Meals

Bernice Dezelan’s three “guinea pigs” are her children — Anthony, 8, Sofia, 4, and Victoria, 20 months. They are the inspiration and main product testers for the delicious food her business, “Yummy Tummy Meals,” delivers locally to other nutrition conscious, busy families.

Dezelan, who has lived in Ridgewood for the past three years, does all of her cooking at night at local, FDA-licensed commercial kitchens, where she rents space. Currently the online menu offers food for babies, toddlers and children, but the creative cook is already thinking ahead to offering complete family meals in the future.

The business evolved from Dezelan’s passion to feed her children food that was fresh and organic. To offer other parents those same wholesome meals, she first shared her original recipes on her own food blog.

“I knew there was a need for parents to have access to fresh meals for babies and children that they would actually love eating,” she said. When the family moved to Ridgewood with two children and expecting a third, she knew it was the perfect time to start her dream baby food delivery company.

The Record

Glaze Donuts, the New Milford shop that sells outrageously delicious “artisan” doughnuts, has opened a second location in Ridgewood where you can get all of its fresh creations, including two of its popular hybrid pastries: the cronangle and the doughnish.

The cronangle ($2.50) is, of course, a play off the Manhattan sensation called the cronut – Glaze’s version is essentially like a fried flaky croissant, served glazed or with flavored fillings (such as apple and cheese) or toppings (such as chocolate and caramel drizzle). It’s quite rich, though much less oily than other cronut imitators we’ve tried.
