LAVO at The Palazzo is serving a spooky shared dessert for a scary-short time.

The Spooky Tartufo Fantasia is a shimmering jack-o’-lantern that is set on fire to reveal a stack of gelatos, chocolate cake, chantilly and fresh strawberries inside.

The Tartufo, $22, is only available at LAVO (3327 Las Vegas Blvd S) during dinner service Thursday through Halloween and during Party Brunch on Halloween Day.
