Preparing chocolate mousse a day ahead is possible
For the perfect texture, you can prepare your chocolate mousse the day before. However, since it’s a dessert made with raw eggs, it is not recommended to keep it for more than 24 hours in the fridge.
What can you serve with this mousse?
When serving your chocolate mousse, you can pair it with seasonal fresh fruits. For those with a sweet tooth, you can also serve it with dry biscuits such as almond tuiles, cat’s tongues, or Russian cigarettes: anything goes!
Can you freeze chocolate mousse?
You can freeze your homemade chocolate mousse, provided you use very fresh eggs and freeze it shortly after preparation. Then, it can be kept for 1 to 2 months. To enjoy it, simply let it rest for a few hours in the refrigerator.
