This is fast and elegant--everyone always thinks it must be a complicated recipe but it's shamefully simple. I don't know why, but I always confess after serving it that it only took a few minutes to make. Either pour it into one bowl or individual serving dishes, and garnish with fresh fruit, such as strawberries or mandarin slices. Try it with pineapple or lime juice in place of the grapefruit, if you like!

This mousse is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mousse turned out grainy. I think I might have overbeaten the cream.

This mousse is a bit tart, but I like that. It's a nice change from the usual sweet desserts.

This mousse is the perfect make-ahead dessert. I made it the night before and it was just as good the next day.

I'm not a huge fan of citrus desserts, but I really enjoyed this mousse. The citrus flavor was subtle and not overpowering.

This mousse is a great way to use up leftover citrus. I had some lemons and oranges that were about to go bad, so I made this mousse and it turned out great.

I've made this mousse several times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfectly. I love the bright citrus flavor and the creamy texture.

This citrus mousse was a delightful treat! The combination of tangy citrus and creamy mousse was perfect, and the texture was light and airy. I garnished mine with fresh mint and it added a nice pop of color and flavor.
