We received a D24 Durian Mooncake and a Mango Mooncake from Emicakes and naturally being Singapore's No.1 Durian Cake Maker, we had high expectations, particularly when we regard Emicakes to have one of the better durian cakes.
Comparing Emicakes' Ultimate D24 Durian Cake, one might be slightly disappointed with the D24 mooncake as it adopts a creamier and less pulpy filling. When eaten chilled, it does show resemblance to good quality durian ice-cream but lacks the richness which durian lovers tend to look out for.
Snowskin is slightly sticky and on the sweet side so these may appeal to the sweet tooth. On the other hand, the Mango Mooncake is very different from what Goodwood Park Hotel has to offer. Instead of a strong mango puree filling, this is closer to a mango pudding with slices of mango.
Given Yuan's strong liking for durians, his preference was inclined towards the Mango Mooncake given its light and refreshing overall taste. As for me, I would prefer the D24 durian mooncake for the sweet contrast between the creamy filling and soft snowskin.
For fans of Emicakes, do order your mooncake early. Early bird special is from 20 Aug to 19 Sept. Please visit emicakes.com.sg for more information.
Lastly, many thanks to Ms. Abigail, Marketing Executive of Emicakes (S) Pte Ltd for the complimentary mooncakes.
