If you count yourself among a foodie and wish to burn some money then rush now to Serendipity, a restaurant based in New York. Having carved its position in Guinness Book of World Records, the Grand Opulence Sundae offered here demands $1000. The very tag of world’s most expensive ice cream is gaining customers for the restaurant, if not more at least one customer every month for the Grand Sundae. The ice cream was produced to commemorate Serendipity’s Golden Jubilee.

The sundae is doled out in a baccarat Harcourt gemstone goblet with an 18K gold spoon to participate in the luxury served with a diminutive mother of treasure spoon and with toppings of a gilded sugar flower by Ron Ben-Israel. It is available only after placing an order almost 48 hours in advance.

I know this would be a surprise for all the foodies out there. You would be amazed to know that the most expensive cheese in the world is not of French origin. It is actually Swedish! The price of this cheese is $500/lb. Stunned? There is one more thing to amaze you: this is a Moose milk cheese. It is prepared at the Moose House which is a 59-acre moose dairy farm at Bjursholm, in the north of
Sweden.This unique farm is owned by Christer Johannson who took the onus of establishing it 7 years ago. This is the most extra-ordinary farm in
Europe as it produces only milk, and not cheese.

The three lucky cows who are the proud providers of the milk for this cheese are Haelga, Gullan, as well as Juna.

It takes around two and a half hours to milk them. They produce around one gallon of milk each day. But, the milk and the subsequent cheese are as precious as these cows milk only in the period of May to September.

The cheese is supplied to elite hotels and cafes in the country. Visitors too can have the opportunity of buying any of the three varieties of cheese available at this exclusive farm.

I hope that you would actually be curious about tasting the most expensive cheese in the world. Get set go!

Can you afford to buy $100 melon? Yes, the world’s most expensive melon is available at the high end department store in Tokyo for auction. But if you can manage to do a good bargain then you can easily get two melons for $143. The practice of giving gifts in Japan is in itself an artistic work wherein gifting food items are much in demand but not any ordinary food basket.

Grown meticulously in Japan on individual vines, the musk melons are alive throughout the year and come packed in fine tissue with a treating price. Pomegranates cost $5 each while a pack of 15 strawberries would charge you $35.

If you are blessed with sweet tongue to match your foodie spirit, then The Fortress Hotel in Galle, Sri Lanka would be your next sure-spot destination.

This Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence demands a bulky but justifiable sum of $14,500. Featuring a gold leaf Italian cassata relished with Irish cream and mango, the other ingredients of the dessert include Dom Perignon champagne, gold and silver leaf.

Following an age-old practice of the fishermen, the dessert is dished up with a concoction leaning against fishermen’s Valrhona chocolate sculpture carved out of an 80-carat aquamarine stone costing $14,000.

So, guys with a small bargain of $500, you can end up giving a feast to your eyes by grabbing empty sculpture but yes a total down payment of $14,500 can really make your day with a chocolate pudding overflowing out of this sculpture. The dessert eyes only the elite and exclusive clientele of the hotel.

Reuters states that the GM of the hotel has received two enquiries from Japan and the management is hopeful to ink one-or-two deals during this year. But the workers of Sri Lanka are not amazed with such an asset as BBC quotes a Colombo-based development worker saying Sri Lanka is still battling with the bents of life and death, making efforts to come out of the aftermath of 2004 tsunami. In such a difficult situation, this kind of promo won’t help.
