Quality chocolate: Valrhona Guanaja 70%.

This chocolate is known for its superior quality and intense flavour. It will bring a rich chocolate taste to our mousse, which is essential for the success of the recipe.
Egg white substitute: Potatowhip Cold
The vegan chocolate mousse recipe we are sharing is completely vegan. To achieve the same light and fluffy texture you would get with egg whites, we use an egg white substitute called Potatowhip Cold. This product is versatile and has become a favourite among vegans and people with egg allergies. It provides the necessary stability for our mousse.
Vegan Mousse Gelatine: vegan mousse gelling agent
To ensure that our mousse has the perfect consistency, we use Vegan Mousse Gelatine. This gelling agent has been specifically formulated for vegan mousses and is ideal for achieving a silky smooth texture. It has a low gelling temperature of 32-40°C and is resistant to freezing. Be sure to add it to the watery part of your recipe for best results.
Vegan protein meringue: the air magic
One of the secrets to achieving a vegan chocolate mousse with the right texture is to incorporate air into the mixture. For this, we prepare a vegetable protein meringue. This meringue is mixed into the chocolate mixture before gelling occurs. This allows us to work at higher temperatures and ensures that the mousse is light and smooth.
In short, vegan chocolate mousse is a treat that everyone can enjoy, and with the right ingredients and techniques, you can make it exceptional.
