"Located in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, the Sugar Factory (which opened last summer when the Hard Rock did, replacing the Trump Taj Mahal) is a sit-down restaurant with a savory menu of burgers, pizza and more, but it's best known for oversized ice cream concoctions and 64-ounce alcoholic drinks poured into goblets and garnished with candy. Available now through Thursday, October 17, it's selling a $99 publicity stunt called the “Candy Kong Sundae,” a candy-covered version of its over-the-top “King Kong Sundae” that no one should under any circumstances attempt to eat by themselves: the sundae includes 24 scoops of ice cream, multi-colored chocolate ganache, whipped cream, Nerds, Spree, peach gummies, mini-Jawbreakers, watermelon drops, gummy bears, M&M's and Pop Rocks, and is topped with a rainbow lollipop, a gumball machine, a candy necklace, cotton candy sticks and a rubber ducky." - Rachel Vigoda
