So, check this out: the most expensive ice cream sundae in the world! Five scoops of Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream, laced with Madagascar vanilla, and plated in edible gold leaf. Smother with Amedei Porceleana chocolate, add chunks of hand-crafted Venezualan cocoa, and serve in a crystal goblet with a 18-carat gold spoon with a mother-of-pearl handle. Wait, there's more! Serve with French candied fruits, cherries, truffles, and gold-plated sugar dragees, a small bowl of Grand Passion Caviar flavored with passionfruit and citrus, and top the whole thing with a spun-sugar rose gilded with gold. All for only a thousand dollars! They serve them at the Serendipity restaurant in New York City (www.serendipity3.com/food.htm) along with 13-dollar cheeseburgers and 15-dollar chicken pot pie.
I asked for one for Christmas. Let's see if Santa follows through.
