The Golden Cristal Ube, a really bling bling donut

2016 is off to a strong start in Brooklyn in terms of delirious gastronomy...

This year's new kid on the block is none other than the Golden Cristal Ube , a donut covered in gold and champagne, sold for the modest sum of 100 dollars. Yes, good taste has a cost!

For more precision, it is covered with shavings of 24 carat gold accompanied by a Cristal champagne glaze, filled with a mousse of purple potatoes from the Philippines and to finish, a champagne jelly…

If the customer orders this little sweetness online, it is the chef himself who travels to make the delivery. In Brooklyn we do things right, or we don't!

And if you want to make the trip, you can get this little treat in the Filipino restaurant Manila Social Club you'll find in the ultra-trendy neighborhood of Williamsburg.

Initially, this cake was marketed only for the holiday season but given the success it has had, the restaurant has no plans to stop and we understand why...

Moreover, for the New Year, some customers did not hesitate to indulge themselves and spend 1200 dollars for a dozen donuts...

How to start the year with a nice “hole” in the budget!

Good resolutions for 2016 also means knowing how to have fun! Beware, however, of the addition which could be somewhat indigestible...
