Eggless mango mousse recipe – easy dessert recipe made with heavy whipping cream and mango pulp.
Mango mousse has very creamy, light and airy texture. Only few ingredients and delicious dessert is ready in only 15 minutes. Of course you need few hours to let it set in fridge.
This is eggless mousse. I have not used gelatin or agar agar to set the mousse. Hence it is quick mango mousse recipe.
In this mango season, I have to make this yummy mousse as this is dear husband’s demand. He loves all kind of mousses.
It is very easy to make. Just whip some cream to soft peak and fold some mango puree. Flavor it with vanilla extract. Set them in individual servings and keep refrigerated till you serve. Delicious dessert is ready in minutes.
You can make this mousse few hours or a day earlier. And when you have some company, serve this and impress your guests.
Notes:
- Heavy whipping cream – You can use ‘Malai’ which you get from top of milk. And if using store bought heavy whipping cream like I did here, make sure that cream has more than 35% fat content. So it gets whipped nicely.
- Many readers are from India. I know that the cream you get in India does not have 35% fat content. But don’t worry, You can use amul whipping cream. It works perfectly fine. I got good review from Indian readers.
- To make whipping job easy, make sure that bowl, whisk attachment and heavy cream are really chilled. So I recommend to keep all three in freezer for 15-20 minutes. If you follow this tip, you will get nice and soft peaks even though it has less fat content.
- If you are using canned sweetened mango pulp, then reduce the sugar quantity.
- If you want Indian flavored mousse, then skip the vanilla extract. Add 1 teaspoon of cardamom powder or 1 teaspoon of dry ginger powder. All the flavors go well with mangoes perfectly.

I’ve tried a few of recipes, and they’ve come out wonderfully! I wanted to know if this mousse would work well in a precooked tart shell? I’ve been meaning to try mango mousse tarts and loved your recipe for the mousse (healthy, gelatin free, etc). Also, you stated granulated sugar. Can we substitute honey or maple sugar or even pure cane sugar to make a bit more healthier?
Any other suggestions you have would be wonderful and helpful!

September 12, 2016 at 4:03 pmYes you can use this mousse for making tart.
Instead of granulated sugar you can use any other sugar like you have mentioned maple sugar or cane sugar. I would not recommend honey or maple syrup because it is liquid will make mousse consistency thinner.
Mango and coconut is good combination – you can add desiccated coconut in your crust.
Mango and chocolate is also good, you can drizzle the chocolate ganache on top or make swirl (similar to strawberry cheesecake) of it into the tart

September 13, 2016 at 10:23 pmHi Kanan,
Thanks for all the tips! Unfortunately, the hubby isn’t a big cream cheese fan. So that idea is out. But, I will take your advice on the coconut and mango combination and the chocolate ganache! I ended up getting the pre-made phyllo shells at my local grocery store, so making tart shells will have to wait!
So, I have another question for you .If I’m using fresh mangos, do you recommend freezing them prior to making the pulp out of it? I have lots on ripe mangos that I’m trying to use up before the go bad.
Thanks,
Kajal Patel

No need to freeze the mangoes, you can use fresh mango pulp.
