Rikki Burton and Jasmine Baxter of Anderson Brookes Insolvency Practitioners Limited have been appointed joint liquidators of Waffle King Ltd, a Wales-registered food service company, after members passed a resolution on 21 May 2026 to wind the business up voluntarily.
A creditors' voluntary liquidation, or CVL, is an insolvent winding-up resolved by a company's members at the request of its directors, without a court order. It is the single largest stream of UK corporate insolvency by volume. From the date of the resolution, Burton and Baxter take control of realising the company's assets and distributing any proceeds to creditors.
The company
Waffle King Ltd was incorporated on 10 April 2019 and is registered at 1 Treforris Road, Dwygyfylchi, Penmaenmawr, Wales, LL34 6UB. The company operated under SIC code 56290, which covers other food service activities. Its last filed accounts were micro-entity accounts made up to 30 April 2022, with a next due date of 31 January 2024 that was not met before the liquidation resolution was passed.
The officers
Ian Charles Ralph has been a director since 19 August 2024 and held that position at the time of the resolution. Jamilla Bibi Dickens, who was a director from incorporation on 10 April 2019, resigned on 2 July 2025. Both Ralph and Dickens are recorded as resident in Wales.
The liquidators
Burton holds IP number 14430 and Baxter holds IP number 31870. Both are licensed insolvency practitioners at Anderson Brookes Insolvency Practitioners Limited, whose offices are at 1st Floor, Fairclough House, Church Street, Chorley, Lancashire, PR7 4EX. As joint liquidators, either may act independently unless the terms of the appointment specify otherwise.
No secured charges are registered against Waffle King Ltd at Companies House, so there are no secured creditors with a prior claim over the company's assets ahead of the general body of creditors.
The CVL resolution was published in the London Gazette on 25 May 2026, four days after the appointment date. Creditors wishing to submit a claim should contact Anderson Brookes Insolvency Practitioners Limited directly. The formal mechanism for doing so is a proof of debt, the standard claim form a creditor submits to the liquidators evidencing the amount owed.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Waffle King Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Waffle King Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Waffle King Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Waffle King Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
