Low Fat Lemon Mousse – Tried and Tasted

We thought it was time we turned our taste buds to a few more tempting treats - something to pop in your pack up or enjoy after your evening meal hence… lemon mousse.

Our Tasters scored all the mousses out of 5 and they have been ranked in order according to their score.

Table 1: Low Fat Lemon Mousse Compared

Product	Lite Mousse, Lemon, Onken*	Low Fat Fruit Juice Mousse, Lemon, Shape*	Lemon Mousse, Count On Us, Marks & Spencer*
Ranking	1	2	3
Comments	A nice looking mousse with a refreshing syrupy lemon sauce below a creamy, mousse layer. It had a sherbet like taste, a good texture and was undeniably more satisfying than the others.	A creamy mousse with a milder lemon taste. Has a lovely texture with a bit of substance (not as airy as some of the others).	An attractive looking mousse with a nice lemony colour and ice cream appearance. Good lemon flavour - probably due to the bits of lemon peel. The panel disliked the "bits" and preferred a smooth mousse but, if bits are you're thing, this is definitely worth a try!

Table 2: Low Fat Lemon Mousse Compared

Product	Lemon Mousse, Healthy Eating, Tesco*	Lemon Mousse, BGTY, Sainsbury's*
Ranking	4	5
Comments	A refreshing mousse with an airy texture. A nice, light mousse, but wouldn't do much to satisfy.	Like the Tesco, Healthy Eating mousse, this one had a light, airy texture. Again a nice mousse with a little more lemony taste, but we still felt it wouldn't be very satisfying.
Serving Size	1 Pot (60g)	1 Pot (62.5g)
Calories (kcal) per serving	57	59
Fat (g) per serving	1.6	1.7

Conclusion

We couldn't believe lemon mousse could vary so greatly. Onken Lite was the unanimous winner - with a lovely taste, texture and appearance. It may be a little heavier in calories than its Healthy Eating or Be Good to Yourself counterparts but it will definitely leave you feeling good!
