With Valentines Day just around the corner what better dessert is there to share with your special someone than decadent Chocolate Mousse and today I have the most amazing “healthy” chocolate mousse to share with you.
It is so easy to change a few ingredients around from the traditional chocolate mousse – pipe the mixture into your glass jar – add your strawberry on top and you have a dessert that looks just like the traditional mousse but it is way better for you!
This recipe was shared with me by my lovely nutritionalist Simone Kopkas from Health Wholistically. The mousse below was created by Dewi from Sweet Bloom Cakes and photographed by me! Enjoy!

- 1 ripe banana
- 125ml coconut cream

These look delicious and I can just imagine how they would compliment not only a valentines table but also a christmas table. I would prefer to eat one of these rather then the traditional christmas pudding
These look absolutely delicious just wondering if I could substitute the nutmeg with a strawberry dehydrated super food powder to give it a more berry flavour?
