Toppings cost extra.

Because for a grand a pop, this thing better be as good as sex.

I say it had better be a good deal better than sex for $1000. I don't know about you, but I don't pay for sex.

Can I charge it to my future lottery winnings?

This is an interesting remark... I wonder if you consciously associated a sick play on greed and arrogance like this with sick play on greed and gullibility known as the lottery...

Made with "5 scoops of the richest Tahitian vanilla bean ice cream infused with Madagascar vanilla and covered in 23K edible gold leaf, the sundae is drizzled with the world's most expensive chocolate, Amedei Porceleana, and covered with chunks of rare Chuao chocolate, which is from cocoa beans harvested by the Caribbean Sea on Venezuela's coast.

The masterpiece is suffused with exotic candied fruits from Paris, gold dragets, truffles and Marzipan Cherries. It is topped with a tiny glass bowl of Grand Passion Caviar, an exclusive dessert caviar, made of salt-free American Golden caviar, known for its sparkling golden color. It's sweetened and infused with fresh passion fruit, orange and Armagnac.

Dude, that is the nastiest thing I have ever heard of.

For a lot of people in NYC a thousand dollars is not a lot of money.

Ya know... if I had a thousand dollars to spend on an ice cream sundae, I'd try it.

But, suffice it to say, I don't.

LOL! I showed the this, and what you said, to a friend and she says, "It's a sundae, it has them [aphrodisiac qualities] just because it's a sundae. Give it to a woman and she'll be all 'Omg a $1000 sundae for me?!' and be like 'omg LOVE'!"

She's an awesome friend :^D!

Why not charge 3-4 sundaes to Nigerian General Kachinga Cheatchusuckah who is going to give you $10 million after you send your bank account number to him.

you can size pictures, like this:

by adding this to the tag [< img src = "xxxxx" height=350 width=350 >< /img >]

but on the other hand something like this ought to look large.

I wouldn't even spend the sixty or seventy to buy a sundae at FAO Schwartz. Fuggedaboutit.

The ability to afford it IS the aphrodisiac

Boom!

What a sublime assessment of human nature. Home run!

I just saw how they make that ib the Food Network a few days ago.. The only thing appealing to me about it was the type of chocolate they used. mmm

I was torn about the size of the pic----at those prices, it seemed to deserve the larger posting.

Not a particularly original thought -- everyone knows a $1,500 bottle of wine has more sex appeal than 40 ounces of Miller High Life...
