Geneva based luxury jewelry brand Shawish has unveiled the world's most expensive chocolate Easter egg at Harrods in England. Even if chocolate is your greatest extravagance, you might hesitate gobbling up this chocolate creation because it sports a price tag of $46,500.
The chocolate Easter egg was handcrafted by Geneva’s award-winning chocolatier Philippe Pascoët. He used a blend of the finest chocolates and added in 65% Venezuelan chocolate ornaments. Of course, with its hefty price tag, the egg is also brushed with real gold.
The only reason you would want to chomp into this exquisitely crafted chocolate egg is to get to the 18-ct white gold pendant dangling inside -- just be careful you don't crack a tooth in the process. This jeweler seems to be upping the anti for the creators of Kinder Surprise.
