Delicious $750 Confections

The Decadence D'Or Cupcake is the World's Most Expensive Mini Cake

High rollers in Vegas don't have to spend all their money on just fancy hotels and spirits anymore because with the Decadence D’Or cupcake from Sweet Surrender in the Palazzo they can drop a mere $750 on each one they order.

The exorbitantly decadent cupcake features cake that's made from Palmira Single Estate chocolate, which is so exclusive that it's released in vintage batches from the estate in small, distinctly noted shipments. To top the Decadence D’Or cupcake, the frosting is created using Charentes-Poitou AOC butter that's then mixed with Tahitian Gold vanilla caviar. The final touch on the Decadence D’Or cupcake is a small dousing of Louis XIII de Remy Martin Cognac and some gold flakes for panache. Lavish or what?
