Today in Gear: End Your Week Here

Looking for the world’s most expensive ice cream? Well, Cellato has you covered. The savory Byakuya release retails for $6,380 and is made with rare white truffles that are sourced exclusively from Alba, Italy. Traditionally, these truffles can sell for up to $14,500 per kilogram, so blending them into an ice cream meant working very, very carefully. The full ingredient list boasts other flavors like edible gold leaf, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and sake lees; and the ice cream arrives with its own metal spoon — but not just any spoon. The handmade utensil is painstakingly crafted by Takeuchi artisans who use traditional techniques and materials originating from temple and shrine construction. So yes, if you’re looking for the world’s most expensive ice cream, look no further than Cellato.

For the last few years, one grill trend just keeps popping up: Himalayan salt block grilling. Traditionally, the practice requires one to place the salt block either between the meat and grill grates or use the block to press down on the meat as it cooks directly on the grates. Luckily, Charcoal Companion streamlined the process. With the company’s new Himalayan Salt Skewers ($15), fans can press their favorite meats and veggies between the blocks, to flavor every bite without taking up the entire cooking space. So if you’re shopping for the pit master who has everything, consider throwing these in their grill kit this summer.

Weatherproofed, yet notably breathable thanks to a mesh upper, the shoe features a 100 percent recycled mesh lining, footbed cover, webbing and laces.
