A JAW-DROPPING 24-carat gold cappuccino could be yours to sip in London - but it's 10 TIMES more expensive than your average cup of joe.

       With Salt Bae's golden steak causing a frenzy in the capital, a string of other restaurants have followed the sparkling trend to attract customers who want a taste of the finer things in life.

       Salt Bae's 24-carat ￡630 gilt steak was the inspiration behind the gold cappuccino

       Drunch, in Mayfair, London, is just the latest - selling a cup of coffee covered with gold leaf that will set you back ￡30.

       The creative director Shaya Honar, 34, said: “A lot of our customers love expensive stuff so the gold cappuccino was perfect for the menu.

       “I remember when I tried it the first time, it was mind-blowing to me.

       “It was like I had pursued the most luxurious cappuccino in the world. I was so impressed that I wanted it every day for my breakfast.”

       The gold cappuccino is ten times more expensive than the average cuppa but Shaya insists it is ‘worth it’.

       She added: “It is an amazing treat. We have people travelling from all over the UK to try one.

       “Drunch is a very instagrammable place - our customers love it because of the designer brand coffee stencils and gold coffees."

       Customers keen to snap themselves drinking the expensive coffee even have a dedicated spot to pose at the cafe.

       The golden food craze stems from the viral celebrity, Salt Bae - real name Nusret G？k？e - who first broke the internet with his flamboyant sprinkling of salt.

       Nusret recently opened his 15th restaurant, Nusr-Et in London, where wealthy diners might catch him tossing seasoning over his ￡630 gold-covered steaks.

       Another restaurant joining the gold food craze in the capital is an Indian restaurant near London Bridge, which offers a 24 carat poppadom for ￡100.

       However, not all golden treats require an extortionate amount of money.

       A bistro bar in Bolton is spoofing Salt Bae’s pricey dishes by selling a ￡12.50 pork pie covered in gold leaf.
