Business Insider

The world’s most expensive ice cream is being sold for around 873,400 Japanese yen, or US$6,300, per serving.
The dessert, called byakuya, has set a Guinness World Record because of its eye-watering price tag.
Made by Japanese ice-cream brand Cellato, the dessert includes white truffle, which is sourced from Alba in Italy and costs around US$14,500 per kg, according to a blog post by Guinness World Records.
Other ingredients include Parmigiano Reggiano (a type of cheese), edible gold leaf and sake lees (a paste-like cooking ingredient), according to Cellato’s website.

According to the Guinness World Records blog post, Cellato wanted to include both European and Japanese ingredients in the ice cream, so it turned to a chef known for fusion cuisine for help.
“It took us over 1.5 years to develop, with a lot of trials and errors to get the taste right,” a Cellato company representative said. “Achieving a Guinness World Records title made the effort all worth it.”

The company is planning to release more products, such as Champagne and caviar, in the future, according to Guinness World Records.
A representative for Cellato did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Scoopi Cafe in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, previously served what was considered to be the most expensive ice cream in the world.
The ice cream, which cost US$817, also included Italian truffles, as well as other ingredients such as ambrosial Iranian saffron, and edible 23-karat gold flakes.
