Chocolate mousse for pastries | callebaut.com (2024)

Possible causes and solutions

The chocolate you used was too fluid

A three-drop chocolate has exactly the right cocoa butter content to produce the perfect end results. Chocolate with more cocoa butter in it will create a sandy texture.

The cream was whipped too stiffly

Always whip the cream into medium peaks (i.e. 2/3 stiff) and not more. If it’s too stiff, you can’t fold it in easily, creating a sandy texture.
