If you have never tried eating fresh durian before, you have never really tasted anything amazingly complex your whole life. Most people who tried durian have done it out of curiosity or have simply accepted a challenge to eat it.

FAQ
Q: What can I expect when I order the Jin Feng / Golden Phoenix Durian?
A: You can expect a high quality durian that is verified with the Malaysian Durian Authorities to be an actual Golden Phoenix Durian. In the de-husked packet that you will receive, your durians are hermetically air-sealed using a heat-sealer. Inside your packet will also be a water-absorbent condiment pack that we use to ensure that your durians arrive to you nice and good.
Q: Why are your durians sometime in-stock and sometimes not?
A: That is the case with durians, it’s that certain types will come into season and go out of season. The main durian season will have the most types of durians, so if you can patronise us during that period, that would be the best.
GOOOOD mooncakes. Very nice, durian smell very strong. Just like buying fresh durains. Looks very pretty also
Haven’t tried the mooncakes but I like how the packaging looks carefully placed together! Comes with a cooler bag good for marketing too
Wanted to see what’s all the hype about it being the world’s rarest mooncake. It sure didn’t disappoint, the durian flavour was on point, tasted a little bit like alcohol which is what black thorn is known for. Snowskin was soft and thin as well. Very worth it, thumbs up!
Delivery was prompt and was sent in a cooler bag. Wonderful for keeping the mooncakes cold. Satisfied customer!
thank you for the beautiful mooncakes and packaging. can’t wait to try it
