Indulge in the creamy delight of coconut mousse, a light and airy dessert perfect for any occasion. This tropical treat, often made with coconut milk or cream, is best enjoyed fresh to savor its delicate flavor and smooth texture.

Storage Time

3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2 months in the freezer if prepared correctly.

Temperature

Store refrigerated at 0–4°C (32–40°F) to maintain optimal freshness and prevent bacterial growth.

Freezing

Coconut mousse can be frozen, but its texture may change slightly upon thawing. For best results, portion the mousse into individual airtight containers or freezer-safe bags. To thaw, transfer the frozen mousse to the refrigerator overnight. Avoid refreezing once thawed. The airy quality might be slightly diminished, but the flavor will remain delicious.

Signs of Spoilage

• Unpleasant sour or fermented odor.
• Visible mold growth on the surface.
• Separation of liquid from the solid components, or a watery texture.
• Off-putting change in color, such as darkening or unusual discoloration.
