The harvest quality of durians ranges throughout the season, so you know you’re getting the good stuff when a seller only has durians in limited quantities.
99 Old Trees Durian only sells stock that passes their quality checks so you know that the D24, S17, Jin Feng and MSW you’re getting will hit the spot. Each 700G box starts from $40 and you can even get 1KG of durian pulp from $48 to make durian desserts like mousse and puffs at home.
Delivery: $6.90 delivery fee

Here, you can expect Red Prawn, D101, and MSW variants from $15/KG. Look out for their elusive Black Pearl variant – its slightly bitter and creamy flesh makes it an addictive choice.
Do note that there’s a minimum order of 6KG which roughly gives you two boxes of durians, which can be easily demolished by you and your family.

Durian Papi specialises in MSW durians that come straight from their plantation in Pahang, Malaysia. What’s different about them is that they vacuum-seal and freeze their durians immediately after dehusking, keeping the fruit fresh for longer periods of time.
Because of this, their durians can be kept for up to one year unopened – perfect for when you want to indulge in durians off-season.
Each 400G box costs $45 and can be shared between two – three pax. For those who want to have an MSW stash in their freezer, you’ll be glad to know that with each order of six boxes, you’ll get an extra box for free.
Delivery: Free for all orders, same-day delivery for orders made before 6PM
