Question Asked: What Is The Most Expensive Dessert In The World?
|
Nov 6th, 2008 |
Great question. I’ve never really thought about it, so let’s see what Google has to say.
According to Reuter’s, recently Serendipity III in New York City set a world record for the most expensive dessert in the world, at a whopping $25,000 US.
Stephen Bruce, owner of Serendipity 3, partnered with luxury jeweler Euphoria New York to create the “Frrozen Haute Chocolate,” a blend of 28 cocoas, including 14 of the most expensive and exotic from around the globe.
The dessert, spelled with two Rs, is infused with 5 grams (0.2 ounces) of edible 23-karat gold and served in a goblet lined with edible gold. At the base of the goblet is an 18-karat gold bracelet with 1 carat of white diamonds.
The sundae is topped with whipped cream covered with more gold and a side of La Madeline au Truffle from Knipschildt Chocolatier, which sells for $2,600 a pound.
It is eaten with a gold spoon decorated with white and chocolate-colored diamonds, which can also be taken home.
I’ve been to that restaurant, and had their regular Frozen Hot Chocolate, which is great. Be prepared, if you want to eat there, call ahead, and get there early. Wait times can literally be six hours. And yes, it’s the restaurante that John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale go to in the movie Serendipity.
