Tasty Pastry Trade Limited goes into liquidation

Western Business Park, 38-40 Great Western Close, Birmingham, B18 4QF

The most recent insolvency notice for Tasty Pastry Trade Limited is an Appointment of liquidators (CVL), published 21 August 2026 in The London Gazette. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 30 September 2024, showed total assets of £84k and net assets of -£12k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 23 months before its first insolvency notice. Liquidation winds a company up: a licensed insolvency practitioner (the liquidator) is appointed to sell the company's assets and distribute the proceeds to creditors in the order fixed by law, after which the company is dissolved. A creditors' voluntary liquidation (CVL) is started by the company's own directors and shareholders once it can no longer pay its debts as they fall due.

  1. The notice announces the appointment of liquidators for Tasty Pastry Trade Limited.

  2. Tasty Pastry Trade Limited resolved to voluntarily wind up its business and appointed Mark Bowen as liquidator on 19 August 2026.

What happens next

The liquidator realises the assets, writes to known creditors inviting claims, reports on the directors' conduct, and distributes what is recovered in the order fixed by law — costs of the liquidation, preferential creditors, secured creditors, then unsecured creditors. Claims go to the liquidator named in the notice, not to the company. The company is dissolved once the liquidation is complete.

Owed money by Tasty Pastry Trade Limited?

A bad debt this size rarely stops with the company that failed. If you're a supplier or creditor left short, it's worth knowing where you rank — and checking what the shortfall does to your own cashflow.

  • Its last filed accounts, to September 2024, already showed negative net assets of -£12k, 23 months before the first insolvency notice.

Each of these is visible months before a Gazette notice. Directors who act at that stage keep far more options open, from an informal turnaround to a CVA or restructuring plan.
