【Tomato Recipe】Chocolate Mousse - Airy Mousse Cake
Overview
The taste of this chocolate mousse is very unique. It does not use gelatin tablets and other coagulants. The chocolate is mixed with whipped cream and egg whites. After the chocolate mousse naturally solidifies, it has a very light texture that can best be described as airy. In summer, such a cold and light-tasting mousse is the most pleasant~ A cup of dessert after a meal is rich, silky and mellow, what a treat!
