Another $1,000 dessert?

I have to say, this whole super-opulent dessert trend is wearing a little thin. Maybe I'm alone on this though, since Serendipity in New York City supposedly sells one of their $1,000 Grand Opulence Sundaes every month. Maybe a little credit is due here, too, since they've been offering the dessert for more than a year. What do you get with your four-figure dish of ice cream? Well, there's Tahitian vanilla ice cream covered with gold leaf, a drizzle of "the world's most expensive chocolate" Amedei Porceleana, candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets (dragees?) and a golden dessert caviar, among other trimmings. If that seems like a lot of gold, it's because the sundae was made for Serendipity's 50th (golden) anniversary.

Tip of the Day

Even though the crust of your pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving turned out flaky and buttery, consider everyone "pie"-ed out. Try these non-pie ways to use up leftover disk of dough.
