A twist on a classic banana cake, this indulgent dessert features rich and creamy D24 durian mousse sandwiched between layers of fluffy banana cake.

It is then dressed with durian sauce and finished with caramelised bananas and baked walnuts.

3. D24 Crystal Apricot Dome

Try the D24 crystal apricot dome for a lighter treat. This dessert comprises a house-made chocolate biscuit base, topped with apricot compote, apricot mousse and flourless chocolate sponge, enveloped in a velvety durian mousse.

4. D24 Strawberry Mascarpone Filo Tart

A highlight and crowd favourite of this year’s Durian Fiesta lineup, the D24 strawberry mascarpone filo tart sees eight thin and delicate layers of filo pastry meticulously assembled to form a cup. The pastry is then baked to a crisp and filled with creamy durian mousse and light mascarpone cream. The tart is crowned with fresh strawberries and roasted pistachios, adding texture to the tantalising treat. The light filo pastry cuts the richness of the durian, balancing its flavours.

5. Deep Fried D24 Mochi Ball

Head to Min Jiang for a taste of these indulgent mochi balls. These balls consist of creamy durian purée and fresh milk curd, wrapped in a blanket of sticky glutinous rice and deep-fried till golden brown. This treat is crispy on the outside, yet chewy and creamy on the inside—one is definitely not enough. These mochi balls are exclusively available for dine-in at Min Jiang at Goodwood Park Hotel.
