The Wispa Gold Chocolate Bar Selling at Auction for $1,628

— August 5, 2009 — Lifestyle
While I am happy with a Twix bar, some people have more extravagant tastes, or in this case, much more extravagant. The Wispa Gold chocolate bar is selling at Selfridges auction house in London for $1628.

The Wispa Gold chocolate bar is wrapped in edible gold leaf and encased in a gold wrapper, and will also be given to you by Tony Hadley, a man apparently known for the song ‘Gold.’

This is one extravagant chocolate bar, and perhaps not one to share with those of less discerning tastes like myself, as I clearly won't appreciate it to its full $1628 worth.
