This $750 Cupcake is Made from ‘Gold Vanilla Caviar’

There’s nothing like satisfying your sweet tooth with a cupcake. But there’s spending $4 to indulge yourself, and then there’s spending $750. Behold the Decadence D’Or, possibly the bougiest cupcake on earth at Sweet Surrender inside the Palazzo in Las Vegas.

This $750 cupcake is made from Palmira Single Estate chocolate, which is so exclusive that it’s only released in vintages. Then there’s the frosting made from Charentes-Poitou AOC butter crafted by a French butter cooperative founded in 1888 (legit), which is then mixed with Tahitian Gold vanilla caviar. The majority of the ingredients in the Decadence D’Or have either been hand-picked or hand cultivated at this point. Then they add Louis XIII de Remy Martin Cognac, blended from 1200 cognacs between 40 to 100 years old. Following so far?

Finally it’s topped off with edible gold flakes. Because rich people.
