The Fortress Aquamarine

If you think your dinner at a star hotel was expensive, then wait until you try The Fortress Aquamarine. The desert you see in the picture above is called The Fortress Aquamarine being sold at a restaurant in Sri Lanka costs a whopping $14,500, undeniably the world’s most expensive dessert.

The desert is a gold leaf Italian cassata flavored with Irish cream, served with a mango and pomegranate compote and champagne. Decorated with a chocolate carving of a fisherman clinging to a stilt and an 80 carat aquamarine stone, it’s a gorgeous looking desert. So, if you’ve got both expensive taste and a sweet tooth then go ahead with adding this world’s most expensive dessert to your wish list of things to try. http://www.awesomeasia.com/entry/the-fo ... -a-desert/

Interesting dessert, the stone isn't set in any pretty jewelry though.....
