Traybakes made by

Hand
raybakes are the most consumed type of Sweet Bakery items in the UK Out Of Home Market (Derived from Consumption Occasions Lumina Intelligence). The category has broad appeal and is famous for its classic treat aspect, but also its convenient format, making it a very versatile option that can be sold across different channels and dayparts alike. At the Handmade Cake Company, Traybakes are what we do best! From our flagship, award-winning Caramel Shortcake to our incredibly gooey Gluten Free Brownie, we have built our reputation on best in class, handmade traybakes. With market and consumer insights at the forefront of our NPD process, we’re also making sure our range features more than the classic traybakes your customers would expect. In line with current trends, we’ve recently developed products inspired by the nostalgia and American cuisine trends, as well as the healthier eating movement with an ever growing number of gluten free and vegan options that do not compromise on quality and taste.

A Cut Above the Rest When we pre-cut the traybakes, we do not cut through to the packaging. So run a sharp knife through our incisions to ensure a clean break.

Best Selling Caramel Shortcakes Our Caramel Shortcake remains one of our bestselling lines. It’s a true classic and we think ours is the best out there, and many of our customers agree. How do we make it taste so good? Every day, we make our caramel from scratch following a traditional recipe with no steps removed. We spread the Belgian chocolate on top the same way we always have, with the back of a spoon. It’s this kind of dedication to detail that ensures every slice is a true delight to look at, hold and of course, eat.

Salted Caramel &
Honeycomb Brownie
Here it is! Part of our success was built on our Brownie expertise and our ability to deliver a great mix of textures, delicious free from alternatives but also exciting flavoured twists on this all time classic. But for our brownie collection to get closer to perfection we still needed a great Salted Caramel version delivering on all identified aspects of what consumers are expecting from a memorable brownie experience. We’ve put our heart, soul and experience into this one and really feel it will be a game changer for our customers and their customers, but we’ll let you judge, as per the saying, the proof is in the pudding brownie.

Lemon Bar
Our research into consumer behaviour has highlighted the importance of seasonality, healthier indulgence and creations that are new and exciting when it comes to dessert consumption frequency. When looking at strengthening our traybake category for 2022, we really felt there was an opportunity to develop a product that would be at the crossroads of all those consumer needs: our new Lemon bar is a genuinely fruity and fresh traybake option, borrowing from the Classic Tart au Citron with regards to feel and texture but under a traybake format for greater convenience and portion control. It is the perfect product to consider for your Spring Summer menu refresh if you want to offer something a bit more unique and sophisticated.

Traycakes Traycakes are on the rise. They’re easy to portion and often travel better than slices of round cake which makes them perfectly suited to the growing convenience sector. Grab and Go has never been more important and busy travellers are beginning to demand the same quality and innovation as in other food sectors. Traycakes like our Gluten Free Cappuccino Traycake are ideal for this opportunity - convenient, indulgent and premium while delivering the same experience as a traditional slice of cake.

Sweet Snacking has known a resurgence at the start of the pandemic when it increased by 50% (Kantar ,2020) with consumers using it as a source of comfort and a way to add breaks to monotonous days working from home. It is clear this habit will last, to some extent, but with the acceleration of the healthier eating movement, and return to more active lives, aligning your offer with identified consumers and their needs by balancing recipes, portion control, formats and healthier indulgence is key to increase sales.

Tips for Serving
Gluten Free
1. Train Staff
Staff should be trained on communicating with customers about allergens as well as how to store, prepare and serve gluten free food. Emphasise that if in doubt, check the ingredients and processes and ensure customer allergies are communicated to all those involved in serving them.
2. Choose Suppliers Carefully
Working with a gluten free supplier is much easier than baking from scratch on-site. Choosing a brand that can be trusted to ensure gluten free integrity is pivotal. Check whether products are manufactured in a gluten free environment, whether they have third party certification (such
64
81% of Ceoliac UK members say they would be prepared to travel for 30 minutes or longer to a venue they knew could cater for a gluten free diet. Our award-winning gluten free range is perfect for tapping into this demand, however, storing and serving product correctly, as well as communicating well with free from consumers, is vital to offering a safe and memorable experience.
as BRC) and if they have a Food Safety Management System in place. All our gluten free cakes are made in our ‘AA grade’ BRC certified, segregated, gluten free bakery and are licensed by Coeliac UK. However, once you unwrap our cakes its important to have controls in place to ensure they remain gluten free.
3. Have Separate Utensils and Storage Gluten free products and ingredients should be clearly marked and ideally stored on dedicated shelves above other ingredients. If you have a cake display, physically separate the gluten free products and cover them with a bell jar or similar. Ensure you have separate utensils for serving gluten free products that are clearly labelled. Thoroughly wash surfaces, hands and serving equipment regularly.
4. Make It Easy For Gluten Free Customers
To build brand loyalty, aim to make your free from customers experience as easy as possible. Some people may be embarrassed when having to clarify ingredients. Advertising and labelling your gluten free products makes customers feel more comfortable asking questions and declaring allergies. It may be helpful to ask customers if they have any allergies when you begin serving them and offering those who do the allergy menu.
5. Offer Individually Wrapped Products
Individually wrapped gluten free products are a fantastic way to minimalise the risk of cross contamination. This is because they are sealed in a gluten free environment and remain so until they are unwrapped by the end customer. Our individually wrapped Cakesto-go are all gluten free as is our individually wrapped scone. These are a great way to expand your offer to gluten free customers, especially if you do not have the infrastructure to establish gluten free processes for serving unwrapped food. Please note that this advice is intended only as a guide and is not exhaustive. For more guidance please refer to Coeliac UK.

NIGEL TAYLOR UK Managing Director Mademoiselle Desserts group
elcome to our 2022 brochure for Handmade Cake Company and Mademoiselle Desserts, full of fantastic looking and tasting Cakes & Desserts which we hope inspire you to give some of them a try! Our three bakeries in the U.K., in Maidenhead, Corby and Taunton, will have been part of the wider Mademoiselle Desserts Group for 5 years in 2022. Over that time, we have evolved our range across both our brands with new & exciting concepts to sit alongside our classic Cakes and Desserts. We have introduced Good, Better & Best tiers to our range, developed a Gluten Free and Vegan offer and ensured market insight is at the heart of our development. We’re closer than ever to our target of being a one stop Cakes & Desserts solution for our customers.. 2021 was a year of solutions and innovation. Over the past year, Takeaway and Delivery has grown exponentially as consumers have sought to enjoy great hospitality at home. We’ve responded by developing an exciting range of premium pots and sharing deserts ideally suited to the home delivery and takeaway market. We’ve made significant investment in our Tart & Pie capabilities which saw the introduction of the Custard Tart, Lemon Tart and the Vegan Treacle Tart in 2021 with further exciting launches in 2022 including Key Lime Pie and Vegan Pecan Pie. Consumers’ interest in health and well-being has strengthened the demand for Vegan and Plant-Based products. In 2021 we developed a Vegan Mocha

Cake, Vegan Speculoos Cheesecake and a Vegan Apple Pie. To continue this theme in 2022, our Product Development Teams have produced some winter classics for Veganuary headlined by the Vegan Bakewell Tart and the Vegan & Gluten Free Nutty Flapjack. With consumers becoming more knowledgeable on food and seeking greater value for money, premiumisation is a theme for 2022, and we’ve started to develop a range of ‘Best Ever’ products. First up is the rather delicious New York Vanilla Cheesecake which we are sure you’ll love! More than ever, over the last 18 months, our customers have been looking for comfort and nostalgia with their dessert choices. We’ve embraced this by placing a modern twist on some of the classics, producing delights such as our new Rhubarb & Custard Cake, Battenberg Layer Cake and Strawberries & Cream Cheesecake. Alongside this we can see a thirst for adventure and experience in consumers’ food choices and we’ve responded by further enhancing our hybrid range with a Cookie Dough Cake, and prime for the seasonal period, a Mincemeat Sticky Toffee Pudding. Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it! To top it off, we’ve invested further in developing our Category Management approach with new sources of insight, so that we can provide a truly focused solution for every channel in which you and your customers operate. I look forward to a continued partnership with you going into 2022 and wish you all a successful start to the year.

Speculoos A recipe for success While the original recipe contains butter, speculoos can easily be made vegan. Sweet and savoury caramelised flavour reminds consumers of salted caramel, one of the most popular flavours in sweet bakery over the years. Speculoos Crumbly texture pairs well with a broad flavour spectrum and creates interesting combinations, toppings etc. Versatile, it can easily be turned into butter/spread/fillings, soaked into coffee or even infused into caramel. Bold in flavour with hints of cinnamon: in line with current flavour trends towards bolder profiles and spices.

The origins of the tan delicacy made out of butter, brown sugar, and spices are found almost four centuries ago. Speculoos can be traced back to at least 1650 when bakers were already making the biscuit alongside their bread. Made on the eve of Sinterklaas, children that had been good throughout the year would wake up to their shoes – which they’d set up the night before – stuffed with not only presents but also generous helpings of speculoos cookies.

THE WORLD’S FAVOURITE FLAVOUR! Whether celebrating or commiserating; we eat chocolate when we’re happy, sad or simply deserving of a treat. It’s an incredibly recognised and stable flavour across the world, in fact, the global chocolate market was estimated to be worth $131.7 billion in 2019. (BBC 2020) and recent events have seen its consumption rise by 46% in the UK during lockdown (Kantar, 2020). Chocolate, made from cacao seeds, can be made into liquid or solid form to add flavour/ingredients into all manor of foods and beverages. It is a consistently popular flavour globally, having been originally created (in broth form) by the ancient Maya of Mesoamerica, who first cultivated cacao beans as early as 1750BC.
Chocolate = Comfort
In these troubled times, no doubt chocolate has become even more important as people were seeking reassurance, familiarity and comfort. Chocolate consumption has increased by 46% in the UK during lockdown (Kantar, 2020)
Dark chocolate stimulates the production of endorphins, chemicals in the brain that create feelings of pleasure. Dark chocolate also contains serotonin, an antidepressant that can elevate mood.
Provenance & Premiumisation

of dessert consumers are motivated to chose desserts if the chocolate content is described as “good quality” or “Belgian”.

(Callebaut & CGA 2020)
So how did Chocolate make its way to Europe? During the 16th century a man called Hernán Cortés travelled to South America to establish Spanish colonies, and when he arrived he was greeted with gallons of the spicy drink (Cacao broth). He took some home with him to Spain and it became a hit. Initially, it was often used as a medicine, but its bitter taste led people to try sweetening it. So, some added sugar, vanilla or honey. This made it absolutely delicious, and it soon became very fashionable at the Spanish court. In modern times Europe is now the largest consumer of Chocolate worldwide.

Because Round Cakes deliver indulgence and a proper treat feeling that can be shared with family and friends. As celebration is not an everyday occasion, customers really want it to feel special and memorable. That’s why decoration, design and particularly colours are very important factors to consider when choosing the perfect celebration cake to add to your range.

These are not doughnuts !! In the 1980s, the Heunet couple from Northern France were making home-made beignets to sell locally at markets. These beignets were made following a traditional local recipe featuring quality ingredients such as fresh yeast and butter; then deep fried, filled and coated in sugar but could also be eaten plain. This passion led to the creation of a company, under the Les Délices des 7 Vallées name, which became part of the Mademoiselle Desserts group in 2019 and allows the group to offer this delicious, premium alternative to mainstream doughnuts.

ONE LUMP NOT TWO Due to the work we have completed on sugar reduction, by the end of 2019, there was 32 tonnes less sugar entering the food chain. Each dessert created by Mademoiselle Desserts is designed to be a moment of decadent delight and indulgence. However, in line with governmental sugar guidelines and the market trend towards a lower sugar diet, our chefs have been working to reduce the level of sugar in some of our desserts without compromising on the exceptional taste. With this in mind, we have redeveloped our gateaux range with new lower sugar recipes and an improved flavour profile and taste. Please note the new codes when ordering. In addition to lowering the sugar level in some of our products, all our sites are now peanut free. As part of this work, and to ensure even more people can enjoy them, we have removed the peanuts from our gateaux range. 84
