Goodwood Park Durian Cake: Another Durian Delight

From the same place which produces heavenly durian puffs, also comes the legendary durian cake.

Durian Cake

Durian Cake,   S$36++,   

Tempting as the initial appearance seems, the thick lustre and strong stint of durian smell can never be missed.

Durian Cake
Flattery goodness of a simple two layered spongecake overwhelmed with generous D24 pulp, topped with spongy cubes and sprinkled with icing sugar - you'll just want to dig in! Everything blended in so perfectly, that it felt like eating an actual durian, yet at the same time, not neglecting the creamy delight from the pastry.

VERDICT
Over the years, we've been hearing people mentioning how praiseworthy Goodwood's durian cakes were, and we certainly have not regretted investing (that amount of money) on one.

Goodwood Park Durian Puffs: One is Not Enough

Many should hear about the durian products from Goodwood Park Hotel Deli. This is our first time trying them out.

Durian Puffs

Durian Puffs (20 Pieces),   S$36++,   

Sink your teeth into one of these puffs, and we gurantee you that you'll fly to heaven. Alright, 'flying to heaven' is a bit exaggerating; but we've never eaten Durian Puffs like these before, and they are by far, the BEST.

Durian Puffs
Trapped between the fluffy puffs, are the richness of the thick durian filling. In local terms, it's really 'gao gao' to the max.

VERDICT
Goodwood Park Hotel Deli is undeniably well acclaimed for their durian pastries. However, they are eminently pricey for the average, and is more suited for once in a while indulgence. (A cheaper, mini, and almost as fulfilling alternative would be the durian puffs from Puteri Mas. We'll blog about it when we get our hands on them.)
