This ice cream is named “Black Diamond.” It is basically vanilla flavored, but not your regular vanilla flavor, mind you. The ice cream is beautifully garnished with 23-carat edible gold flakes. There are also saffron and black truffle toppings in it.
The ice cream is popularly called “Diamond of Gastronomy.” You cannot find this ice cream just anywhere in Dubai. It is available at a dessert parlor named Scoopi Cafe.
You will be served the ice cream in a beautiful Versace bowl with a silver spoon. The cafe lets you take the bowl and spoon home!
This gold ice cream came into the limelight when an Indian actress and travel vlogger Shenaz Treasurywala shared a video of her visit to this famous cafe of Dubai. She is seen relishing the Black Diamond ice cream in the picture.

Many of you would prefer the latter, but hey, life is lived only once. So, why not take a trip to Dubai and taste this ice cream, eh?
