The most expensive desserts

Its sweet, it looks good and you pay through the nose for it...The $1,000 Golden Opulence Sundae at Serendipity 3 in Manhattan features five scoops of Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream, delicately rolled in 23-karat edible gold leaf and drizzled with the world’s most expensive chocolate. Chilling on top in a tiny bowl is caviar that’s been leeched of salt and infused with passion fruit, orange and Armagnac liqeur. And when people finish the sundae they’re left with tiny flecks of gold dust around their mouths.....feel like trying it out?

More on the Grand Opulence. The sundae isn’t meant to be a spur-of-the-moment purchase. It’s only available by appointment, and the ingredients--everything from the Parisian candied fruits to the pricey Amedei Porcelana chocolate--have to be ordered in advance. Bruce personally supervises each construction, a 20-minute process because of the delicate nature of the ingredients. Chocolate is chopped and melted; ice cream is layered with Madagascar vanilla. Once customers have savored the delicacy, they get to keep the golden spoon and $300 Baccarat Harcourt crystal goblet.
