Edible gold

The idea of edible gold is not unheard off. Many chefs and cuisines around the world, has incorporated gold leaves into their dishes as an edible aesthetic enhancement but this company, Tsukioka Co., Ltd., based in Kakamigahara, Gifu Prefecture., has taken gold eating to the next level. They’ve actually created gold letterings like “Happy Birthday” and designs that floats in your cup of coffee or tea or punch bowls, basically anything you can think of.

There are currently 42 messages and designs available. The film is wound into a roll, and pieces are peeled off one at a time. With the smallest-sized packages at just ¥525 ($4.38 at ¥120 to the dollar), it is not at all expensive for a product made of pure gold. Messages and designs can also be custom made, although only for large-volume orders of ¥65,000 ($542) or more. Also on sale are a gold-leaf powder that can be used to decorate cakes and other confections, available in spray-can form, and a sprinkle-on flake type.
