The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS

The company was dormant in the prior year, trade commencing part way through the current year. The 12 months to 31st December 2024 showed a turnover of £60,798,609 in 2024. Profit/(Loss) for the year after tax amounts to £102,924 in 2024.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Exposure to price, credit, cashflow and business risk arises in the normal course of Mademoiselle Desserts UK Limited's business. These risks are limited by the Company's financial management policies described below:

Price Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk due to its operations. The Company looks to mitigate this risk wherever possible by entering into price and volume contracts to support its performance.

Credit Risk

The Company has the policy of obtaining credit insurance on its customers, wherever possible, to mitigate the associated credit risk. There is also a policy in place to carry out appropriate credit check on potential customers before sales are made. However, due to the blue-chip nature of our customer base, we have an excellent record in this area.

Cash Flow Risk

The Company is exposed to movements in working capital. To mitigate this the Company operates appropriate credit collection process to minimise overdue debts. Supplier payments are maintained to agreed terms and inventory is monitored regularly.

Business Risk

The Board has established a formal process of identifying, evaluating and managing the business risk faced, with ongoing review of progress against strategic objectives. The business risks reviewed include:

-

external business risk including regulatory and compliance obligations

-

operational risk arising from supplier dependency, material damage, fire

-

legal risk arising from contracts with suppliers

-

information risk including integrity of IT systems and security of information.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

The Directors monitor performance of the company by monitoring monthly KPIs which include, but are not limited to:

Net Sales

Gross Profit

EBITDA

Net Working Capital

Cash generation and Manufacturing data.

GOING CONCERN

Based on forecasts and projections, together with available market information and the director's knowledge and experience of the industry, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual financial statements.

With the business' focus being on planning ahead with new product ranges, investment in key new equipment alongside excellent customer contact and communication, it has lead to the business strengthen it's relationships and build relationships with new potential customers to get a strong start in 2025.

EMPLOYEES

The company ensures that employees are made aware of factors that affect the performance of the company and that employees are provided with information on matters which concern them. Employees are also regularly consulted to ensure that their views are taken into account in decisions that affect their interests.

During the year, the company gave full and fair consideration to applications for employment from disabled persons having regard to their particular aptitudes, when related to any suitable opportunities available.

Company policy provides that existing employees who become disabled shall continue employment with the company, if at all possible, subject to any appropriate training.

Training, career development and promotion apply equally to all employees, taking into consideration their aptitudes and abilities.

DISCLOSURE IN THE STRATEGIC REPORT

Principle activity and financial risk management objectives and policies in respect of the exposure to price, credit, cash flow and business risks are set out in the strategic report (as defined by section 414 C (11) of the Companies Act 2006).

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES

The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

-	select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-	make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

-	prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS

So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

AUDITORS

The auditors, Clifford Roberts Chartered Accountants, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Mr N Taylor - Director

29 July 2025

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Mademoiselle Desserts UK Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

-	give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its profit for the year then ended;

-	have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

-	have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

The prior year financial statements were not required to be audited. As such, the comparative figures within the current year financial statements are unaudited

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

-	the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

-	the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

-	adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

-	the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

-	certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or

-	we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on pages four and five, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

-

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the sector in which they operate. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant: the Companies Act 2006, UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, UK corporate taxation laws and the BRC Global Standard for Food Safety.

-

We obtained an understanding of how the company is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by making inquiries to the management and by observing the oversight of management, the culture of honesty and ethical behaviour and whether strong emphasis is placed on fraud prevention, which may reduce the opportunities for fraud to take place, and fraud deterrence, which could persuade individuals not to commit fraud in the first instance . We corroborated our inquiries through our review of all relevant available audit information.

-

We assessed and understood the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. The audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

>

Identifying and assessing the design and effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;

>

Understanding of how senior management considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process;

>

Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates;

>

Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias; and,

>

Assessing the extent of compliance with relevant laws and regulations.

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Mademoiselle Desserts UK Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£), and are prepared to 31st December each year.

Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":

•

the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;

•

the requirement of paragraph 33.7.

Significant judgements and estimates

In the application of the company's accounting policies management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

The items in the financial statements where these judgements and estimates were deemed to be significant include:

(a) Customer Rebates/Retrospective discounts

The company enters into arrangements with certain customers to pay rebates and/or retrospective discounts depending on volume achieved. These arrangements are negotiated on an individual customer basis. Accruals are recorded when goods are sold according to the terms of the contract and the expected rate at which these payments will be made.

(b) Debtors

Debtors are recorded when a sale is made. A review of the recoverability of debt is undertaken periodically through the year to determine any bad debt provision requirement. This review also considers the level of credit insurance cover in place for the customer.

Revenue

Turnover comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and provision of services in the ordinary course of the Company's activities. Turnover is shown net of sales/value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales within the company.

The Company recognises revenue when:-

The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;

It is probable that future economic benefits will follow to the entity and

Specific criteria have been met for each of the Company's activities.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment loss.

Amortisation is charged to write off the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives, included within administrative expenses. Estimated useful lives applied within each asset category are:

Computer software

20% on cost and 50% on cost

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated into the respective functional currency of the entity at the rates prevailing on the reporting period date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing on the initial transaction dates.

Non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not translated.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the Company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contributions plans are recognised as employees benefit expense when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Trade Creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities. If the company does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Dividends

Dividend distribution to the company shareholders is recognised as a liability in the financial statements in the reporting period in which the dividends are declared.

The Company has exposure to price, credit and cash flow risks, these are limited by the company's financial management policies and practices described below:

Price Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk due to its operations. The Company looks to mitigate this risk wherever possible by entering into price and volume contracts to support its performance. The volatility of the commodity market as well as an increase in the packaging costs due to board costs going up, forced the company to go for a price increase and thereby rebalance the product margins.

Credit Risk

The Company has introduced the policy of obtaining credit insurance on its customers, wherever possible, to mitigate the associated credit risk. There is also a policy in place to carry out appropriate credit check on potential customers before sales are made. However, due to the blue-chip nature of our customer base, we have an excellent record in this area.

Cash Flow Risk

The Company is exposed to movements in working capital. To mitigate this the company operates appropriate credit collection process to minimise over due debts. Supplier payments are maintained to agreed terms and inventory is monitored regularly.
