Worlds most expensive ice cream!

So apparently America's oldest candy shop/ co. is also the smallest! walked in and walked out, candy is candy to me and unless it is made of gold not worth that headach! too many people, too little space!

Speaking of made of gold. This was on the food network the other night, i dont remember what i was watching. There is a little place in Manhatten, of coarse, that makes and sells these ice cream sundae that cost $1000! You are outta your friggen mind! the sad part is they sell them! and like 2-3 a week the woman said. There was a couple there eating one celebrating their anniversary, love you hun, but for ice cream!? You do however get to keep the crystal glass and 18k keepsake spoon....well duh! i would hope so! and can i turn the little bitty bites of 23k edible gold leaf into a ring, or some earings for godsake!

If your interested, the restraunt is called "Serendipity". I found on the web, that they describe the Golden Opulence Sundae as: “5 scoops of the richest Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla and covered in 23K edible gold leaf, the sundae is drizzled with the world’s most expensive chocolate, Amedei Porceleana, and covered with chunks of rare Chuao chocolate, which is from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela’s coast. The masterpiece is suffused with exotic candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets, truffles and Marzipan Cherries. It is topped with a tiny glass bowl of Grand Passion Caviar, an exclusive dessert caviar, made of salt-free American Golden caviar, known for its sparkling golden color. It’s sweetened and infused with fresh passion fruit, orange and Armagnac."

doesnt even sound that good to me... but what do i know.

Serendipity supposedly has the best hot chocolate - have seen it on Oprah and Food Network. Now that I would go for - not that ice cream sundae. I'm with Stephie I don't even like to pay the $3.50 they want for a half gallon here!
