The World's Most Expensive Ice Cream Sundae

Now this is a rich dessert.

The Scoopi Café in Dubai has unveiled the world's most expensive ice cream sundae, costing a huge 3000 Dirhams (£526) a scoop.

It's been created by the café's founder Zubin Doshi and features ingredients from all over the world, including Madagascar vanilla ice cream, Iranian saffron, sliced black Italian truffle and a 23 carat edible gold topping. Anyone lucky enough to try one also gets to keep the Versace serving bowl and spoon.

Doshi is confident of his creation proving successful, saying, “Popular ice-cream products in the city are priced lower, but we expect Dubai’s increasingly aspirational consumers to readily pay a premium for a superior product.”

We'll probably be fine with a 99 for now.
