According to Guinness, the world’s most expensive pudding has gone on sale at New York’s famous Serendipity 3 restaurant.
Priced at £15,730, the Frrrozen Haute Chocolate needs to be ordered two weeks in advance and is served in a baccarat Harcourt crystal goblet with an 18 carat gold and white diamond bracelet attached to the neck.
Joe Calderone, 48, a spokesperson for Serendipity, explained how it’s made: “The goblet is laced with 23 carat edible gold and we add our famous Serendipity frozen hot chocolate mix that contains 14 secret cocoas. In addition to that we add 14 of the world rarest and most expensive cocoas that come from Africa and South America.”
“We add milk to the mix, add ice cubes and place the 28 different cocoas in the blender for 30 seconds. We then add whipped cream and shavings from the world’s most expensive truffle, the La Madeline au Truffle, which costs £1,573 ($2,500) a pound. On top of that goes five grams of 24 carat edible gold and the dessert is served with a £8,800 ($14,000) jewel encrusted spoon that the customer can take home along with their diamond encrusted bracelet.'”
All profits from the pudding will go towards children’s charities in New York but one has yet to be sold.
