2. World’s most expensive wedding cake for £32.4 million

Baker Tim Smith and wife Jules took things to a whole new level with this diamond-encrusted wedding cake - worth a heart-fluttering £32.4 million. They created the towering six-tier centerpiece for the 'National Gay Wedding Show' in Liverpool in 2013. It features 4,104 diamonds. It was made to create awareness and promote the event, which was to be held at the BT convention center.

“It took us five days to make it, although we did not get our hands on the diamonds until fairly late and we had to put them on carefully, one by one. Each one had its place and you have to make sure not to drop any," says the baker.

3. Strawberries Arnaud – US$ 9.85 million

Arnaud’s in New Orleans creates impossible to forget visuals and one such is its valentines special.

This isn't just a dessert but a whole experience in itself.

Tinged with Ceylon cinnamon and Tahitian vanilla and coated with a ruby port sauce, sweet Louisiana-grown strawberries are served in a Champagne glass with a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream, and a whole strawberry. And there is an ultra-luxury version of the French 75 cocktail by Arnaud, made with Hennessy Paradis Cognac, Grand Marnier 100, Cristal Champagne, freshly squeezed lemon juice and edible 24 karat gold leaf flakes. And and and, it doesn't get over there. To make it the perfect proposal it comes with an engagement ring from MS Rau Antiques in the French Quarter, with a colossal 10.06-karat royal blue diamond.

I don't think anybody can say a no to a proposal like this!
