If you’ve got money burning a hole in your pocket and a hankering for the world’s most expensive Christmas pudding, you’re in luck. Pastry chef Martin Chiffers created deliciously expensive holiday dessert, available for just about $38,000.
The pudding itself has yet to be made, but since it’s a costly item, it will be made to suit any dietary specifications of the buyer. The pudding will serve about 12 people and comes with two other items that will really wow dinner guests. The first is a bottle of Duret 1810 Cognac, which itself is worth over $17,000. As well, 10 silver threepences will be included, since it’s tradition to place a threepence inside a Christmas pudding to bring prosperity for the coming year.
If someone is to order this very expensive Christmas pudding, a donation of about $400 will be made to The Prince’s Trust.
