SINGAPORE – When I clap eyes on Goodwood Park Hotel’s new D24 Thorny King ($108 for a 1kg cake for delivery or takeaway), I do a double take. My eyes are not deceiving me. Yes, the cake looks like the real thing.
I immediately want the cake for my birthday. Too bad it does not fall during the hotel’s annual Durian Fiesta, which runs until Aug 9. But if you have a friend who loves durian, this is the perfect gift.
For many years now, the hotel has come up with countless durian desserts. The best ones centre on flavours that work well together. This is very much the case for this cake.
