A restaurant in Brooklyn revealed that it is selling a doughnut with Cristal champagne icing covered in 24-karat gold flakes, Buzzfeed reported.

The restaurant is making waves on social media after its revelation.

The only catch is that the doughnuts will cost you $100. Each.

The pricey pastry can be found at the Manila Social Club.

The Filipino restaurant, which is owned by chef Björn DelaCruz, opened its doors in April, according to a profile in the New York Times.

One of DelaCruz’s specialties is a doughnut made with ube, a purple yam that is popular in the Philippines.

The restaurant’s ube doughnuts are more affordable than the gold ones, at $40 for a dozen.

The purple doughnuts have become popular, and even Broad City star Ilana Glazer is a fan.

But now DelaCruz is kicking it up a notch with his “Golden Cristal Ube Donut.” He has taken his ube doughnut and drizzled it with an icing made with Cristal champagne, champagne jelly, and edible gold flakes.

The chef told FirstWeFeast that the golden creation was born after he hosted a doughnut event with the Braven Brewery. At the event, DelaCruz made a beer-infused doughnut dusted with gold.

“The reason that gold leaf and Cristal were added was because I love all different champagnes,” he told FirstWeFeast. “I wanted to add something to the menu for the new year to celebrate how long we have been going.”

And because this is New York, DelaCruz says people are actually shelling out $100 per doughnut. In fact, he said they are being ordered by the dozens.

“I didn’t know people would go and order a dozen of these at a time,” he told FirstWeFeast. “But then again, it is New York, and there are people willing to put down a grand for a dozen doughnuts.”

The response has been so great that DelaCruz told FirstWeFeast he plans to keep making them throughout the year.

“I take pride in this, and to me it’s a piece of art,” he said. “The Golden Cristal Ube Donut was originally created for the holidays and I wanted something special.”
