  Really lovely recipe. I infused the strawberries with orange zest and rosewater before making the puree and it made it much more summery!

  Lovely recipe, was a refreshing desert that left my in-laws wanting more. Will next time add small chunks of berries to add to the texture.

  This recipe is now a firm favourite and I'm always asked to make it for dinner parties, family get-togethers. So very easy and absolutely delish!!!!

  I've cooked this multiple times and it's such an easy, delicious and light dessert. It's sometimes a little runny, so not quite five stars, but a very good finish to a heavy meal.

  Ok - used only a little of the puree but still it didn't set. nice flavour but not a mousse, more of a runny strawberry soup! I left it in the fridge for hours before eating too! Wouldn't make it again.

  I replaced strawberries with blackberries as it was what I had left in the freezer and it was divine. Really easy to make and set perfectly.

  The mousse was perfect but after chi lling there was a watery residue in the bottom of the glass. Please advise how to avoid this.

  Very disappointed, it failed to set, I notice a few others had this problem but also that lots of people obviously didnt, what did we do wrong?
