The World's Most Expensive Dessert

Filed under: Dining

If you've got both expensive taste and a sweet tooth then you may want to add at a least a few, if not all, of the world's most expensive desserts to your wish list of things to try. The list topper (and therefore THE most expensive dessert in the world) is The Fortress Aquamarine from Wine3 at The Fortress in Galle, Sri Lanka. The focus of the sweet treat is an 80-carat aquamarine gem resting on a specially shaped sliver of fine chocolate representative of the company's logo. It's a gorgeous looking dessert, but not many have any idea if it tastes equally as good since priced at $14,500 the restaurant has yet to sell their first one.

Creme Brulee Tote, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

Maybe it's because I'm a foodie, but one of the things I love about this bag is the name. The Creme Brulee Tote is a new bag available at anthropologie from Italian designer frassineti. It is exceptionally appealing, made of buttery and supple caramel-colored leather. The hardware is gold-tone and sparkles - to extend the food analogies even further - like unmelted sugar crystals on top of a real creme brulee. The only downside is that now that I've been introduced to this designer, I want to see more. Unfortunately, his/her website is still under construction, so I'll have to content myself with this one piece for now. Price: $468.
