Or French cruller-lignonberry concrete, or strawberry-rhubarb, white chocolate-banana, or maybe even a weird and bitter little orange-fudge number. Danny Meyer’s hamburger chain has offered the services of Shake Shack culinary director Mark Rosati to guide the winning bidder of a benefit auction through all the steps of creating a new, hitherto unknown concrete. The finished product will be served for one whole week at the Shake Shack of the winner’s choosing (airports and ballparks excluded), and the auction, which ends today, benefits the always excellent Heritage Radio. It’s the perfect gift for the Shake Shack enthusiast who has everything, or at least for the budding pastry chef who has world-domination plans; bidding is currently at $1,100

Update: The auction has now closed.
