This is not your average sweet confectionery with glazed icing or sugar on top. In fact, you're looking at the world’s most expensive donut. The £1,000 (around US$1274) tower of sweet decadence was created with a royalty of gilded leaves, a gold dusted Belgian chocolate flower and edible diamonds, all for a good cause. Krispy Kreme unveiled the world’s most expensive donut at Selfridges department store in UK about two years ago. The confection was created to mark National Donut Week — a fundraising effort benefiting the UK Children’s Trust charity.
