ITC Launches World's Most Expensive Chocolate Priced At Rs 4.3 lakh/kg; Here's What Makes It So Pricey

If you are a die-hard chocolate fan, this will entice you. Diversified group ITC on Tuesday launched the world's most expensive chocolate in limited edition and is priced exorbitantly at Rs 4.3 lakh per kilogram under its Fabelle brand. 

Due to its widespread popularity and appreciation, it comes as no surprise that the recipe for chocolate has been subject to adaptation and modification over time, as culinary experts strived to create the perfect cocoa-based treat. As with all other gastronomical delights, the price of chocolate is linked directly to its exclusivity and quality.

Fabelle Exquisite Chocolates 'Trinity - Truffles Extraordinaire' - has also entered into Guinness World Records to become the world's most expensive chocolate.

A creation that’s rooted in mysticism and symbolism is all set to create history. Made with most exotic ingredients sourced from all over the world, this creation is ready to launch in India on 22nd October.#DecodeTrinity
