 The Most Expensive Ice Cream Ever!

By Harrison Schurr

The most expensive ice cream ever was sold for $1,000 at a Georgetown restaurant called Serendipity3. Sold on Nov.19, the dessert is called the “Golden Opulence Sundae” and made it into the Guinness Book of World Records as “the most expensive Sundae priced at $1,000.”

The ice cream is made out of Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla. It is layered with a 23-karat edible gold leaf, drizzled in the most expensive chocolate in the world (Amedei Porcelana), topped with caviar and fresh orange, passion fruit and Armagnac. Add to that truffles, gold-dipped French dragees and a couple of marzipan fruits. The dessert is put into a “Baccarat Harcourt Crystal goblet” and that the customer may keep.

This expensive frozen treat was ordered for a boy’s 12th birthday party with his parents and nine friends. This sundae was originally created in 2004 for Serendipity3’s 50th anniversary. Several orders of the ice cream are sold every month at the Las Vegas Serendipity3.
