What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cream's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise is not registered in California as of the effective date listed in the document. The table provided in Item 23 lists the registration status of the franchise in various states.
Specifically, the table indicates whether the franchise is registered, not registered, or pending registration in each state. For California, the listed status is "Not Registered." This means that as of the FDD's effective date, Cream has not completed the registration process required to offer and sell franchises in California.
Prospective franchisees in California should be aware that Cream cannot legally offer or sell a franchise in California until it is registered. This lack of registration may impact the timeline for opening a franchise in California, as Cream must first complete the registration process before proceeding with any franchise sales there.
