Important Tips:
- We really recommend that you refrigerate the dish for at least the full twelve hours before consuming, this ensures optimal consistency. Whilst it may be a hassle to place the mousse in the freezer one hour before serving, it helps create the optimal consistency for your guest without freezing the mousse completely.
- When serving, feel free to top it off with some freshly piped whipped cream or even some delicate chocolate shavings.
