Gold-Dusted Perfection

Chocolate and gold dusting, a heavenly combination... I've never worked with powdered gold.  It adds massive amounts of elegance.  I'm thinking about giving this chocolate cream pie a try.  How incredible would it look with an additional top layer of dark chocolate espresso cream and a shimmering finish of gold?!!!  I'll keep you abreast of any developments : )
