Meanwhile, blend the Ovofree mousse with the water (2) and sugar (2).
Blend at maximum speed for 3 minutes.
Mix gently with the previous, still-liquid mixture.
Note that vegan mousse tends to set more quickly.
Poach the mousse in the mold, pressing against the sides with a spatula to avoid air bubbles. Insert the mandarin cream and orange marmalade, then the almond cookie.
Smooth and freeze.
Assembly and information
Spray with neutral glaze and decorate with chocolate decorations.
Applications
OvoFree Mousse allows you to obtain beautiful airy mousse textures.
Be careful, the texture is airy and therefore less liquid than a classic mousse, so you need to run the spatula carefully through the molds to avoid air bubbles.
Vegetable gelling agents also set more quickly than gelatin, so you need to plan for quick assembly.
