  I've made this dessert once before, and everyone loved the lemony and fresh taste of it. I'm making it again for my lunch party tomorrow. Yum yum........x

  Help, mixture has split. It was ok until I added the lemon juice, needed for meal this evening. What can I do? I have no more cream & no time to get any so I can't use a suggestion found on the internet about adding more cream that has been warmed, reduced by 1/3 and cooled

  My mixture split, the result looked like curd, tasted ok but, looked dreadful. It was ok until I added the lemon juice. Any idea why this happened? I don't think it was anything to do with the lemon juice because one of the people who contributed to the comments said that they added more lemon juice. I don't think it was because I overwhipped it because the recipe says don't make it too thick, implying that overwhipping wouldn't split it just make it too thick. I would be grateful for any advice

  This fast and very easy to make, but it was too creamy for my taste. It leave a slightly buttery aftertaste that I'm not very keen about.

  Made this for a dinner party. Everyone enjoyed it, including the next-door neighbors that I gave some to try. Kids were arguing over what was left and I have been told as it's so easy to make I must make it more often!! Great, light, tasty dessert :-)

  Yummy and very easy to make! I made a quick raspberry compote by mashing up raspberrys and adding a bit of sugar. I put this in the bottom of glass dishes and added the mousse on top. I then decorated with a couple of whole raspberrys on each desert and crumbled flake on top! Scrummy!! :)
