EXHIBIT 31.1

                                  CERTIFICATION

I, Robert Baskind, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Tilden Associates,
     Inc.;

2.   Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
     statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
     make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
     statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
     this quarterly report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
     information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
     material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash
     flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this
     quarterly report;

4.   The small business issuer's other certifying officer(s) and I am
     responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
     procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and
     internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
     13a-15(f)) for the small business issuer and have::

     a)   Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
          disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
          supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the small
          business issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, if any, is
          made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during
          the period in which this quarterly report is being prepared;
     b)   Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused
          such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under
          our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
          reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial
          statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting principals;
     c)   Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer disclosure's
          controls and procedures and presented in this quarterly report our
          conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
          procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based
          on such evaluations; and
     d)   Disclosed in this quarterly report any change in the small business
          issuer internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
          the small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small
          business issuer fourth fiscal quarter in the case of any annual
          report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
          materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial
          reporting;

5.   The small business issuer's other certifying officer(s) and I have
     disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
     financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee
     of registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
     functions):

     a)   all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal
          controls which could adversely affect the registrant's ability to
          record, process, summarize and report financial data and have
          identified for the registrant's auditors any material weaknesses in
          internal controls; and

     b)   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
          employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
          controls; and

6.   I have indicated in this quarterly report whether or not there were
     significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could
     significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of our most
     recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to
     significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
