London-based doughnut shop Dum Dum Donutterie is home to the world's most extravagant doughnut called the 'Luxury Zebra Cro.' The doughnut retails for £1,500 ($1,975) which makes it the most expensive pastry in the world.
It is a black-and-white doughnut with saffron-infused butter croissant dough, Tahitian gold vanilla beans, powdered Nutella and rare and expensive Amedei Porcelana chocolate. The doughnut is topped with Cristal rosé champagne caviar and gold flakes which explains its extremely high price tag. The black and white striped layers of the pastry are why the doughnut was named after the Zebra. The doughnut was created to be showcased at London's Just Eat Food Fest. The doughnut is a one of a kind delicacy for those who can afford its price tag.
