Who needs arousing ingredients like oysters, guarana and chocolate when genius chefs have managed to create a desert that does actually contain Viagra as an ingredient?

The concept for the 'Viagra" dish is the brainchild of cookery students in the Quindio provice of Colombia, who presented it at the ‘Gastronomy 2009’ show in Bogota.

Served in a parfait glass (like a martini glass), the desert is made with passion fruit and topped with whipped cream and chocolate. Though the students have refused to give the full list of ingredients, they did confirm it contains the prescription-only medication Viagra.

One of the chefs, Sebastian Gomez, said that in the recipe they have specified exactly how much Viagra to dissolve into the desert.

He added that they were inspired by the desire to ‘reinterpret’ Viagra as an aphrodisiac.

Obviously as Viagra is a prescription-only medication the desert is extremely unlikely to be appearing in a restaurant near you any time soon and just to be clear, we really, really, really don’t recommend trying to recreate this dish at home.

That said, we think Pfizer, manufacturers of Viagra, should think seriously about the possibilities.

Who wouldn’t prefer to see the doctor for pudding rather than pills?
