Durian Mousse Cake

I had baked extra vanilla sponge and was still wondering what cake should I make with that since I have a long list of "T0-Bake-List". However when I saw the durian stalls at the wet market, Bingo! that was my answer then - Durian Mousse Cake which happen to be one of top priority items in the baking list.

I had requested for this special recipe from my ex-colleagues at least 10 years ago. So far, the durian cake made by her was the best that I had ever tried and had been telling myself I have to make this one day when I master the sponge cake to complement the durian filling. Finally, this is my long awaited durian cake. Don't be deceived by it's plain and boring look...it's fabulous as long as you like durian and ice-cream and that's how I can described the taste of the cake. One of the main success factor is because I used top grade D24 (XO) durian for this cake and also the way the durian mixture is prepared as per recipe....so far I had never taste another durian cake that taste as great as this recipe yield.
