[Review] Durian Bakery’s New MSW Ondeh Mochi: A Must-Try Singaporean Innovation on a Classic Treat

The Durian Bakery, a homegrown specialty bakery renowned for its premium Mao Shan Wang (MSW) durian creations, has unveiled its latest innovation: the MSW Ondeh Mochi.

This new offering is part of the bakery’s Singapore Flavours series, which reimagines local desserts with luxurious durian infusions, just in time for SG60 this year.

Specialising in fresh, preservative-free durian pastries, The Durian Bakery sources its MSW durians directly from Malaysian farms, ensuring top-tier quality. As a testimony of it’s popularity, the brand has earned a 4.7-star rating from over 900 Google reviews and has been featured in extensively across both mainstream and online food media, cementing its reputation as a go-to for durian lovers.

The bakery provided us with samples of three signature products for review:

• 6-piece MSW Ondeh Mochi ($22) – New launch featuring gula melaka-infused mochi with MSW filling

• 6-inch Signature Durian Cake ($58) – A classic MSW mousse cake with light sponge layers

• 6-piece Durian Mochi ($18) – The bakery’s best-selling chewy mochi with MSW filling

Taste and Quality Assessment

The Signature Durian Cake delivers an authentic MSW experience, with a smooth, bittersweet mousse that avoids excessive sweetness.

The cake’s light texture allows the premium durian flavor to dominate, distinguishing it from overly sugary competitors.

The signature Durian Mochi is soft, chewy, with a rich, creamy MSW filling. This is as decadent as it gets for a durian dessert – until you meet their latest creation, the new MSW Ondeh Mochi.

The pandan-infused mochi skin of the MSW Ondeh Mochi encases a liquid gula melaka core that complements rather than overpowers the MSW filling. This balanced combination successfully elevates the traditional ondeh-ondeh concept while maintaining the bakery’s signature durian quality.
