A Philadelphia Bakery Offering A $55,000 Cupcake
Valentine's Day is just a few days away and the excitement or in some cases stress is building. On this day of love, about 10% of the years engagements will take place. So what is the best way to propose? How about a $55,ooo cupcake?
It's not exactly a deal, but a unique idea. Cupcakes Gourmet, a Pennsylvania-based bakery, will make that special someone a red velvet cupcake topped with an 8-carat diamond ring. Yummy, my kind of topping.
Through a partnership with Warwick Jewelers, a local diamonds n' things store, ring buyers get a 15 percent discount and free edible pillow to present it on. The grand total: $55,000. But, if you want a smaller carat diamond, the bakery will work with you on price.
Sure you could put a ring in a box, but that has been done. So why not say marry me with a delicious cupcake.
