5 Tips For Balancing Chocolate Bitterness In Mousse

By Bhavana Verma

Sweeten it

Add sweet ingredients like condensed milk and powdered sugar to sweeten the mousse elegantly.

Add a Pinch of Salt

Salt enhances the chocolatey flavor and neutralizes bitterness.

Use Dairy or Cream

For a soft flavor profile, add some milk or cream to the mousse.

Add Fruity or Tangy Elements

The contrast of fruity and tangy flavors of berries and citrus fruits balances the bitterness.

Right Chocolate Percentage

Use 50–70% dark chocolate for a rich chocolate flavor and less bitterness.
