A Las Vegas Strip eatery serves a dessert big enough for you, your friends and then some.

The Ultimate Belgium Waffle Sundae at Lavo is a colorful concoction served during the Italian restaurant’s Party Brunch, which runs until March.

The sundae features 16 scoops of ice cream, house-made Belgium waffles, Kit Kats, M&Ms, macarons, and topped off with rainbow whipped cream.

Tableside, the sundae is completed with a bottle of Avion Espresso Liqueur and sparklers.

This sweet behemoth is found inside the Palazzo and costs $800.

The Review-Journal is owned by the family of Las Vegas Sands Chairman and CEO Sheldon Adelson.
