Following are some of the most expensive desserts in the world.
Created in the style of a Faberge Easter egg, the extravagant chocolate pudding has broken the world record for most expensive dessert. Its expensive ingredients include gold, champagne caviar and a two-carat diamond. The decadent dessert was created by Marc Guibert, head chef at Lindeth Howe Country House Hotel in the UK.
The dessert is launched at the occasion of National Chocolate Week and is priced at whopping $34,370.14. It is layered with champagne jelly and a biscuit joconde before being finished off with dark chocolate and glazed with an edible gold leaf. But, the pudding can only claim its place in the Guinness Book of World Records when a customer pays for it. Theirs contains 24 carat edible Swiss gold and is lined with 23 carat edible gold leaf.
Diamond Fruitcake: This is probably the most expensive dessert in the world. There exists a fruitcake, created by Japanese pastry chef Jeong Hong-yong, which is studded with diamonds and costs a whopping $1.65 million. It took six months to develop and a whole month to convert it from an idea to the edible luxury cake that it is.
Studded with 223 small diamonds, this cake is the most expensive dessert in the world. All the other ingredients that went into this cake, besides the diamonds, remain a mystery. The chef decided to auction off the cake on Christmas Day at an exhibit entitled Diamonds: Nature’s Miracle.
