Founder Ruby Spolia and Amita Simons stepped onto the carpet in Season 5, Episode 6 in the episode that aired 26 November 2007. Lemongold, the gourmet home party events organiser, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

No deal. Every dragon declined, and Lemongold walked. But a Dragons’ Den appearance reaches millions of viewers whether or not a check gets written, and plenty of no-deal companies have turned that airtime into lasting businesses.

Season 5 saw 79 pitches, and 15 of them closed a deal on air. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
