The Covid-19 pandemic has taken a toll on everyone, including businesses. Some businesses have adapted to this by offering delivery services. We’re not just talking about restaurants and hawker stalls, but also durian shops.
We can’t all head to popular places such as Ah Seng Durian or Combat Durian to snag good deals so now you don’t have to worry about the durian ban on public transport if you want to enjoy it at home. Ordering online also means you don’t have to waste time bargaining or worry about getting ripped off.
The world of durian sales is an extremely dynamic one, with prices and varieties changing from day to day depending on demand, supply and season. Many sellers also sell only until their stock is exhausted for the day. So it’s a good idea to check the seller’s Facebook page, if any, for live updates.
Durian season is typically from June to Aug, so you have about slightly more than a month left to eat your fill.
While we can’t list all the durian places out there, we’ve rounded up some popular places that provide delivery. Read on for some durian places to order from.

Their classic durian cake can be filled with either premium durian or Mao Shan Wang and costs anywhere from $58 to $468 for a mega 3kg cake for up to 26 people.
Other options include 3D Mao Shan Wang Cake which is shaped to look like an actual durian, Charcoal Rosette Durian Cake, Premium Durian Fudge Cake and Premium Durian Swiss Roll, as well as various pastries and desserts.
