Gold Cupcake

We have dived into many golden items you may find in Dubai, from a motorcycle to cell phones. So it is only a matter of time before they start wrapping their food in it, too. Dubai does not hold back when they are trying to make a statement.

Here we have a $1k Golden Phoenix cupcake made with Italian cocoa and wrapped in a 23-carat sheet. It was launched at The Dubai Mall in 2004, and you can order these to be made 48 hours in advance. What else would the wealthy people of Dubai be eating?
