When the aroma of durians begins wafting through the city, it can mean only one thing — durian season is here once again. And for those in Singapore who live and breathe the king of fruits, there’s one destination that has taken the seasonal excitement to another level — IKEA Singapore.
Yes, that’s right. While many associate IKEA with furniture, flat-packed boxes, and Swedish meatballs, their food offerings have quietly become a strong contender in the local food scene. This year, they’ve gone all in on the durian craze with their annual Durian Fiesta, a delightful series of limited-time desserts infused with the bold, unmistakable flavour of durian. Whether one’s a lifelong durian fan or just curious to see what the fuss is about, this seasonal event is worth the trip to your nearest IKEA Restaurant.
Why People Should Head Down to IKEA Singapore for the Durian Fiesta
Firstly, IKEA Singapore is offering not one, not two, but three unique durian desserts as part of this festive campaign. Each dessert is distinct in its presentation and taste, carefully crafted to let the natural richness of durian shine through in new, enjoyable ways.
And best of all? These desserts are offered at special discounted prices for IKEA Family members, making the experience not just tasty, but affordable too. Here’s a closer look at what’s on the menu.
1. Durian Tart – A Classic Favourite with a Golden Touch
There’s something comforting about a good tart — buttery, crumbly crust, soft and creamy centre, and that satisfying finish as it all melts together. IKEA Singapore’s Durian Tart ticks all the right boxes.
Priced at just $3.50 for IKEA Family members (usual price $4.50), this dessert consists of a beautifully baked pastry shell filled with luscious durian custard. The custard is not too overpowering but carries that distinct flavour that durian fans will immediately recognise. The tart is baked to a light caramelised finish, giving it a subtle toasty aroma and a bit of crunch.
It’s simple, elegant, and surprisingly addictive. Available now until 31 August 2025, this is a great introduction to the Durian Fiesta — especially for those who prefer a more traditional treat.
2. Durian Mille Crepe – Light, Lush and Layered
For those seeking something a bit more decadent, the Durian Mille Crepe should be at the top of the list. A mille crepe cake is known for its many paper-thin layers, and this one does not disappoint.
Delicate crepes are stacked one after another, with smooth, aromatic durian cream spread between each fold. It’s an indulgent dessert that offers a lighter texture, making it perfect for those who want the rich taste of durian without the heaviness.
It’s priced at $6.90 for IKEA Family members (usual price $7.90), and is only available until 31 July 2025, which adds a sense of urgency to the indulgence. Once August rolls in, it will be gone — and judging by the popularity of last year’s version, it’s best to try it sooner rather than later.
3. Petite Durian Cake – Small in Size, Big in Flavour
If there’s one thing Singaporeans love, it’s food that looks as good as it tastes. IKEA’s Petite Durian Cake delivers on both fronts. Arriving from 1 August 2025, this adorable treat is shaped to resemble an actual durian, spikes and all.
But don’t be fooled by its petite size — it’s bursting with flavour. The outer shell encases a rich, creamy durian mousse that’s sweet, smooth and packed with the essence of the fruit. It’s the perfect fusion of novelty and tradition, wrapped into a dessert that’s sure to be a conversation starter.
Available until 31 August 2025, it’s priced at $6.00 for IKEA Family members (usual price $7.90). This one will appeal to dessert lovers of all ages, and makes for a great post-meal treat or even a mid-shopping pick-me-up.
It’s a Seasonal Affair – So Don’t Wait Too Long
What makes this promotion especially appealing is its limited-time availability. Each dessert has its own promotion window, and all of them are only available while stocks last.
The Durian Tart is already on sale and runs until the end of August. The Mille Crepe, on the other hand, is ending earlier on 31 July, so fans of soft, layered desserts should make plans accordingly. The Petite Durian Cake only starts from 1 August, giving diners a reason to return and try a new treat as the month progresses.
With IKEA’s desserts becoming increasingly popular over the years — especially during seasonal promotions — it’s not uncommon for items to sell out quickly during peak hours. So, it might be wise to head down early, perhaps during a weekday afternoon if one wants to avoid the weekend crowd.
Why IKEA’s Durian Fiesta Is Worth the Trip
Beyond just the desserts, heading to IKEA during durian season can be a whole outing in itself. Their restaurants offer cosy, air-conditioned seating, and the chance to relax and enjoy an affordable meal with family or friends. The desserts make for a wonderful way to cap off a meal of Swedish classics — or even as a standalone snack.
Moreover, the discounted pricing for IKEA Family members is another incentive. Becoming a member is completely free, and offers regular promotions, early previews, and exclusive pricing across both food and home goods. For those who aren’t yet members, signing up before enjoying the Durian Fiesta is an easy step that pays off immediately.
And while at IKEA, there’s always the chance to do a bit of shopping — whether it’s picking up home essentials, browsing new collections, or getting lost in their cleverly laid out showrooms. It’s easy to turn a simple dessert outing into a productive and enjoyable day.
So here’s the takeaway: If anyone in the household enjoys durian, this is a promotion that truly celebrates the season in delicious style. IKEA Singapore has managed to strike a perfect balance — incorporating the boldness of durian into treats that are approachable, affordable, and creatively presented. With each dessert offering something a little different, there’s something for everyone.
But as all good things do, this Durian Fiesta will eventually come to an end. So whether it’s to satisfy a craving, enjoy a new twist on a local favourite, or simply make the most of the season — don’t miss out on this opportunity to taste these exclusive durian creations.
