For about $1,000, you can partake of this chocolate cupcake, dubbed the “Gold Phoenix.” It's baked with premium chocolate and vanilla beans, then covered in 23-karat edible gold sheets. It comes accompanied by organic strawberries, a dusting of more edible gold and a golden spoon. Who knew gold tasted so good?
