No ordinary cherry tops this sundae; instead, it is garnished with La Madeline au Truffe (most expensive chocolate in the world – a rare French Perigord truffle surrounded by 70% chocolate ganache). The whole mass is served in a goblet surrounded with a crown made, of course, of gold. And diamonds. If that is not enough, the spoon is gold, too.
