Chocolate Mousse


Chocolate mousse - smooth, creamy, and luxurious enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. Lower fat / calorie chocolate mousse sounds like an ideal treat - how do they compare?  


Tuna & Sweetcorn Sandwich Filler

Chocolate Mousse, Count On Us, Marks & Spencer*

The panel's favourite: good chocolate flavour, creamy texture and no artificial aftertaste. The largest pot in the tasting, and the lowest calories per 100g. Recommended.

Tuna & Sweetcorn Sandwich Filling

Light Mousse, Cadbury's*

An initial deflated appearance led the panel to believe it would be "all air". However, it proved to be more substantial than most of the others, and had a luxurious creamy texture. Not as chocolatey as Count On Us - but worth a try.

Sandwich Spread with Chopped Vegetables

Chocolate Mousse, Healthy Eating, Tesco*

An extremely light mousse with a noticeably natural taste - compared to those below. Sadly lacking any real chocolate taste. Disappointing.

Chocolate Mousse, Be Good to Yourself, Sainsbury's*

Artificial tasting, leaves horrible aftertaste in mouth. Also sickly - possibly stuffed with sweeteners? Best avoided.

Chickem, Sweetcorn & Sage Sandwich Filler

Chocolate Mousse, Good for You, Asda*

Extremely similar to its Be Good to Yourself counterpart. Artificial taste. Best avoided.

Conclusion

Overall, the panel felt the standard was poor. Our recommendation? Try the Count On Us Chocolate Mousse with its true chocolate flavour, or save up your calories and indulge in a real mousse! At least then you won't be left with a nasty taste in your mouth.
