  This is a really delicious mousse and had me licking out the bowl before I'd even put it to set. It was light tangy and amazingly good. I then tried making an orange mousse, just replacing the lemon with an orange usingthe rind and etc. it really was amazing and although it sounds out of the ordinary the orange mousse was delicious and a greathot with my friends.

  This is a very easy recipe to make, no need to fiddle around with gelatine etc, but it was far too creamy. There is so much cream in it that it leaves a buttery aftertaste. Not typical of a traditional mousse at all , more like lemon flavoured cream, I wouldn't make this recipe again.

  Gorgeous, easy to make and ideal for after a curry, because it was light and tangy, will be making this again.

  I fanned out a strawberry for the top of each the for decoration, and put two supermarkets own all butter lemon thin biscuits on the plate next to it. The whole thing was so easy but looked great . We invited friends for a curry, this was a perfect sweet for that kind of dinner party.

  Made this for Christmas, was really simple to make and really yummy too!! I did have comments that it tastes like whipped lemon cream so if you're not that keen on cream you may find it a little too much for you, I however love cream and thought this was great!!
