Filed under the what-recession category: A UK chef has concocted the world's most expensive dessert, which will set you back $35,000, reports Time. Along with dark chocolate pudding, champagne caviar, and gold-laced biscuits, you get a 2-karat diamond. The dessert from chef Marc Guibert at the Lindeth Howe Country House in Cumbria is served inside an edible gold replica of a Faberge egg. One catch: It doesn't get into the Guinness record book until somebody actually buys one. (More food feats: Is this the world's biggest burger?)
