I'm not completely aware of the way Debian menus are generated for Xfce, but afaict, the menu used by xfdesktop is generated with update-menus, using /etc/menu-methods/xfdesktop4. Did you try to run update-menus after working on your package? What is the precise problem? How does your application appear in /etc/xdg/xfce4/menu/menudefs.hook?
