Below are the 12 shocking food and drinks made with real gold. 12. Grande Cuvee 24 karat: There are a number of wine and champagne makers on the market that have capitalize on the trend of utilizing gold to heighten the experience of drinking their product. Grande Cuvee, a sparkling wine made in Carlifornia is among the leaders in the field, producing a bottle infused with gold leaf and 24_karat gold flakes. Each pour of the sparkling wine mesmerizes with a dazzling array of gold shimmer as the wine hits the glass and makes it way to your palate. And while you would be most often correct in the assumption that a sparkling wine made with gold would be an expensive drink to pour, the award-winning 24 karat Cuvee is priced at an affordable $31 a bottle, making the sparkling wine not only delicious, but also an extremely economical party favor. 1 Like 1 Share

11. Gold Cappucino: American may run on Drunken Donuts, but Abu Dhabi may very well run on $25 Cappuccinos made with gold. That's right, In the second most populous city in the United Arab Emirates and a city renowned for knowing no bounds when it comes to luxury, your coppuccino is adorned with gold flakes as opposed to Cinnamon. Can you imagine starting off your morning with a Cappuccino shimmering with gold in the city's sunshine, or finishing your evening with a golden cappuccino amidst the lights of skyscrappers? Luxurious indeed. While you maz not get much of your caffeine fix at $25 a shot, the novelty of sipping gold may make up for that. 1 Like

10. 24-karat Imitation Cavier: Made with lemon, white wine, sugar and yes, gold leaf, for $200 a (tiny) jar, this 24-karat Imitation Cavier can be yours. Though ostensibly decorative, the type of Cavier you'd put out a part for your friends to look at as opposed to eat, the 24-karat Imitation Cavier is highly edible. Not only is it an edible addition to a fancy party, it is also utilized by many sushi restaurants that decorate higher end pieces for thier well-paying customers.

9. Gold Cake: Like golden Cavier, Cake and gold make sense as a culinary pairing as well. While the Cavier may have been steeply priced per jar, the cake made with both gold and diamonds will run you over $20,000. But don't worry, it's only $2,500 a slice. Brought by an admittedly impulsive man, the proud owner of the cake, which also includes real flower finishes. Served it for his both 60th birthday back in 2011. The Cake was made with gold leaf and a two karat diamond, and holds the world record for the expensive desert ever created. Apparently. It tasted quite amazing as well.

8. 666 Douche Burger: True story, New York City's 666 Burger truck has created the world's most expensive hamburger. It is is aptly named the Douche Cheese, BBQ Spice, rock salt from the Himalayas, Caviar, Fore gras, lobster and even truffles. The piece de résistance is the gold leaf that wraps the kobe patty, making the beef shimmer. Priced at, you guessed it, $666, the Douche Burges is aimed at those who have the money, and maybe don't see the irony in the name of what they are eating. The Burger is actually wrapped thre $100 bills. While the point of the Burger was to drum up public for their $6.66 regular burgers, the owners of the Truck have actually sold a few.

7. Gold-Infused Chocolate Bacon: Bacon is awesome. Cocolate is awesome. I have no idea if gold is awesome, I'm a writer (lol), but putting all three together seems both bizzare and obvious. While Chocolate Bacon has become quite the trends as of late (and one I can't neccessarily understand), Baconery, a confection company in New York has seemingly mastered the exact science of infusing bacon into all kinds of baked goods and desert. Their Chocolate-wrapped bacon, dusted with flakes of 23-karat gold, is more of the more fanciful deserts the company has come up with. At $40 per strip of Chocolate-wrapped golden Bacon, one can it's as good as Baconery touts used to be.
