Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute Nescafé with another type of coffee?
Yes, you can substitute Nescafé instant coffee with another instant coffee brand, but the taste may vary slightly depending on the coffee you choose. You could also use brewed coffee, but you'll need to adjust the amount of sugar as brewed coffee is less concentrated.
How can I store leftover mousse?
Leftover mousse can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Make sure to cover the dessert glasses if they are uncovered to prevent absorption of other odors in the fridge.
My whipped cream isn't thickening; what could be wrong?
If your whipped cream isn't thickening, it could be because the cream wasn't cold enough. Ensure you're using very cold heavy cream, and you might also want to chill the mixing bowl and beaters for better results. Whip until firm peaks form, but avoid over-whipping as it can turn buttery.
