$55,000 Valentine's Day Cupcake

February 8, 2012

This $55,000 Valentine's Day cupcake from Cupcakes Gourmet is a ravishing yet slightly ridiculous way to propose to your partner. The red velvet cupcake is topped with an 8-carat engagement ring from Warwick Jewelers.

"A diamond is worth a thousand words, but with a cupcake, it's worth more," said Maki Garcia-Evans, the owner of Cupcakes Gourmet. "It suits our store's sloga, 'Love Tastes Like This.'" The $55,000 cupcake is available only via special order, which enables customers to select the diamond ring they prefer for the cupcake.

Pretty poor show at PR guys sorry.. it would be a different case if its value was quantified by expensive ingredients but serious.. an expensive ring, planted in a cupcake to value it at $55K ?? Lame.
