Let it be known, Las Vegas is a town fit for the biggest sweet tooth.

Let it be known, Las Vegas is a town fit for the biggest sweet tooth. For affirmation, one can start at Lakeside, inside the Wynn Resort. There, two ultra decadent desserts help define the overall Vegas vibe of supreme indulgence: a pineapple upside down cake using extremely rare Kauai Sugarloaf Pineapples and a wild sundae called the Cherry On Top.

For the high-end pineapple upside down cake, rare Kauai Sugarloaf Pineapples are the it factor, as they’re known for their distinct white flesh, sweeter flavor profile and exclusivity to the island of Kauai. The result is a pineapple upside down cake worth all its weight in gold.

The Cherry On Top is another choice worthy of a roster spot on Team What Diet. Delicious deets dive into a yummy sundae topped with a giant “cherry” that is a molded sphere made of 70% Valrhona chocolate. It is then sprayed with red cocoa butter and filled to the brim with a mixed berry coulis, fresh berries, and whipped cream. Use a small mallet to crack it open to reveal all the goodness inside!

So which dessert are you choosing to dive into? How about both!
