Choc-waste goes eco-friendly

New York - This is one rich cup of haute chocolate: A New York eatery is offering a $25 000 dessert bulging with top-grade cocoa, edible gold and shavings of a luxury truffle.

The Frrrozen Haute Chocolate was declared the most expensive dessert in the world by the Guinness World Records team.

The dessert is a frozen, slushy mix of cocoas from 14 countries, milk and 5g of 24-carat gold topped with whipped cream and shavings from a La Madeline au Truffle.

It is served in a goblet with a band of gold decorated with 1 carat of diamonds and served with a golden spoon diners can take home.

The dessert was created by Serendipity 3, a restaurant popular with tourists and once featured in a John Cusack movie.
