The Million Dollar Ice Cream Cone What a great idea: a million dollar ice cream cone! Bruster's Real Ice Cream, which apparently has more than 260 stores in 18 states, unveiled the world's first $1 million ice cream cone at the JCK Las Vegas Show.
Ah, Las Vegas -- now it's making a bit more sense. The waffle cone extravaganza was created by Lazare Kaplan International Inc., and consists of nearly 20 troy ounces of 18k white and yellow gold, 548 round Lazare Diamonds, 87 Lazare square emerald cut diamonds, and one breathtaking 5.63 carat Fancy Intense Yellow radiant cut diamond. It has 152.16 total carat weight of diamonds and retails for $1 million. "At Bruster's we're dedicated to providing a superior ice cream product in a fun, social environment," said Jim Sahene, CEO, Bruster's Real Ice Cream. "Bruster's creation of a $1 Million Cone symbolizes the outstanding quality of our ice cream, and its sale provides the platform to speak about the positive impact of one-on-one mentoring relationships like those cultivated by Big Brothers Big Sisters." Bruster's, which recently announced a corporate sponsorship of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, will donate its proceeds from the sale of the $1 Million Cone to the mentoring organization. You just know that Michael Jackson wants to buy this tasteful and extremely useful item. Too bad he's broke. Still, maybe one of his friends from overseas could buy it for him as a birthday present.
