Amazing :The ice-cream that costs £530 a SCOOP (but you get to eat it from a Versace bowl)


Hello guys and welcome to Chitoo's Diary.


Madagascar vanilla, Iranian saffron and slices of black Italian truffle: The ice-cream that costs £530 a SCOOP (but you get to eat it from a Versace bowl).









It's being hailed as the most expensive ice-cream sundae in the world and took five weeks to create, with a single scoop costing a whopping £530.

Made from Madagascar vanilla ice-cream, infused with the world's most expensive Iranian saffron and decorated with slices of black Italian truffles, the Black Diamond ice-cream is on sale at Scoopi Cafe in Dubai.

The decadent dessert is topped with 23-carat edible gold and comes served in a Vesace bowl and spoon, which the customer gets to keep.

The ice-cream is being served at newly launched chocolatier and ice cream café on Al Wasl Road in Dubai.


The café owner Zubin Doshi took five weeks to craft his pricey pud and flew in his exotic ingredients from across the globe while he perfected his recipe.

'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,' he told arabianbusiness.com.

But alongside the expensive ice-cream are some less expensive options such as sorbets, frozen yogurts and speciality sundaes.

While Mr Doshi's ice-cream may be better suited to those with deep pockets, it certainly isn't the most expensive dessert in the world.







Last year Krispy Kreme unveiled its £1,000 Luxe doughnut made with Dom Perignon 2002 champagne jelly, white chocolate flowers dusted with gold, edible diamonds, and 24-carat gold leaf and a cocktail on the side.

The Golden Opulence Sundae at Serendipity 3, New York, costs £647 and must be requested two days in advance to allow for ingredient sourcing.
