    for a firmer mousse, need to add more constarch to the recipe if needed, that makes it thicker!!!

    This looks divine, and my DH/valentine absolutely loves raspberry. also, peeked at the nestle page and saw the photo.

    Any advice on how to cut the recipe in half, or even in one-fourth of the volume? I read reviews, and quite a few had "runny mousse". one added gelatin to remedy.

    thank you for any ideas!!
