What is mango mousse?
Mango mousse is made up of fresh mangoes/ pulp, whipped cream to get an airy fluffy texture, gelatine to bind, condensed milk for thickening.
What consistency should mousse be?
Mousse should be in a smooth and light texture. It should not be runny. It gets it right consistency by folding whipped cream or adding gelatine.
Does mousse have gelatine?
Mousse can be made with or without gelatin. It depends upon one’s personal choice and the consistency of the mouse you prefer. It also depends on the vessel you are using to make the dessert. Filing for mango mousse cake we use less gelatine compared to the mousse cups (depends upon the consistency you need)
Can mango mousse be frozen ?
yes, we can. Chill for at least 4 hours and scoop portions into ice cream dishes.

Frequently asked questions:
Mousse is made by folding of whipped cream and sugar base. Whereas in pudding cooking is involved with milk and sugar base. Souffle is always leavened with whipped egg yolks.
Mango mousse can be kept frozen for up to 2 months. As the mousse contains sugar and gelatine it won’t be frozen completely. Keep overnight in a fridge to show the mousse and use it within 24 hours.
