Guinness World Records called this egg the “most expensive non-jeweled chocolate egg,” proving they truly do have a category for everything. Sold at auction for $11,107, the Golden Speckled Egg weighs just over 100 pounds and stands three feet tall and two inches wide.

It was created by seven chocolatiers from the UK and Japan. They used Amedei chocolate, edible gold leaf, and a couture chocolate filling. Additionally, it was decorated with 12 chocolate mini-eggs, 20 chocolate bars, and five flowers made from white chocolate.

Unfortunately, you can’t buy this egg today, as the auction took place in 2012. But there is good news. The proceeds raised from the auction all went to charity.
