I want to eat durians so bad!

As I write, the radio dj is talking about how durians are going on sale country-wide as there is an abundance of the fruit after the season. 

That is not helping my durian craving at all! 

I know I get readers from all around the world, and some of you might be turning up your noses and wonder what baloney I'm spewing, as durians might be the foulest-smelling fruit there is out there. I can understand how it might smell vile, but the taste and texture is just to die for! I need to stop here before I salivate all over my keyboard haha.

Let's move on to the miniature version. Here's showing you how small my handsculpted durian is. Definitely not my tiniest work, but durians are a lot larger than regular fruits anyway.
 

After holding the durian and snapping away, I realised that my fingers had been poked all over! Though miniature, those durian thorns are still pretty sharp.


Next post, Gold Coast Goodies giveaway! About time too.

It's open to everyone worldwide, so please stay tuned!

    1. Wow $50!!?! It is the season now here in SEA, maybe that's why there's the hype? And you're from Japan? Cool! The flesh is yummy, though you might want to try out durian pastries first! :)

  3. I love your mini durian. My brother has a Durian tree on his property in Bali so I've gotten a chance to experience the flavor and texture myself. I"m one of those that does enjoy durian. Are you making more to sell soon?
    I'm afraid that's the only kind I could import to Alaska!
