If you’re a spoiled Japanese brat your parents probably bought you the Gundam platinum figurine. But what might a cake at such a birthday party look like? Thanks to chef Nobue Ikara we now know:
This cake is decorated with US$130000 worth of platinum ornaments. Of course Ikara didn’t intend it as a birthday cake, but as a “celebration of women who have dazzled millions with their beauty”. What a way to suck up to some models.
But if you think $130k is already a lot of money, well, you don’t know the Japanese yet. There’s always room for more. In this case, the most expensive chocolate cake ever, which was exhibited for sale at a Takashimaya Co., Ltd department store in Tokyo earlier this year:
The chocolate cake was decorated with 223 diamonds, and was reported to be priced at 200 million yen (1227440 Euro). That’s a lot of Twinkies.
