They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend. If that is true, one dessert could be called a bride’s best friend.

From Yahoo:

A confection billed as the most expensive wedding cake in the world makes its debut on Monday [last Monday, October 16] night in Beverly Hills, but is likely to cause indigestion.

The extravagant $20 million (10.7 million pounds) diamond-studded wedding cake, created by Mimi So Jewellers and cake designer Nahid La Patisserie Artistique, is the star attraction of the Luxury Brands Bridal Show and will be unveiled on exclusive Rodeo Drive.

“Where else would you debut a $20 million wedding cake but on Rodeo Drive?” said show organiser Ilona Sherman.

The cake is protected by a team of uniformed security guards at all times, she said. And there’s no way it will ever be eaten.

“I think diamonds are too hard on the stomach,” Sherman said.
