Caveat Emptor: World’s Most Expensive Chocolates!


via Dallas Food:

Let’s compare that with the products of some commonly known chocolatiers. Godiva chocolates range from about $30 to $65 per pound. Joseph Schmidt chocolates range from around $30 to $55 per pound. Fran’s chocolates cost around $55 to $70 per pound. Michael Recchiuti’s chocolates run from $58 to $85 per pound. And La Maison du Chocolat ranges from about $65 to $85 per pound.

Noka’s pricing soars over that of most gourmet chocolatiers by a factor of five, ten, even twenty times or more.

To make some “apples to oranges” comparisons, Noka chocolates cost more than:
Foie gras — $50 per pound
Domestic sturgeon caviar — $275 per pound
American Wagyu and Japanese Kobe beef — $100 to $300 per pound
Sterling silver — $170 per pound
Marijuana in El Paso — $350 per pound
A fat stack of dollar bills — $454 per pound

Sometimes the price lies…I’ll just stick to my Godivas…lol
