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.

What if we are using sweetened cream....do we need to add sugar then?
No need to add sugar, if cream is sweetened already. You may need to add sugar, if your mangoes are not sweet
Pls can you let me know where you buy the whipping cream and what brand? Amul's fresh cream is less than 35% fat content. Thanks!
Here in USA, I have used Tuscan brand heavy whipping cream. I know that Amul cream has less than 35% fat, But many of my readers are in India and they have tried with Amul cream and they got success. Though personally I have never tried it.
Hi, Kanan,
This might help!
A video on YouTube by cookingshooking - whipped cream from Amul low fat cream.
I don't know why I can't paste link here.
Thanks Pragati. It will help my Indian readers. Because of the spam security, links are not allowed in comments, that's why.
This looks awesome, i fell in love with Mango Mousse after going to a restaurant. But i have a question. Do i have to add some mango puree to the cream? Can i just leave it like that? Cause i want to make it a cream layer then topped with the mango puree? Same question for the strawberry mousse as well, i notice you put some of the puree into the mixed cream, is that mandatory or optional? Thank you, i will definitely try this out!
if you do layer of cream (without pulp) + fruit puree then whenever you get spoon of cream, it won't have much taste in it.
Making layers is such a cool idea, I would recommend like this: mix the only half quantity of the fruit pulp with cream then layer of cream (w/ pulp) + fruit pulp. Thus whenever you get spoon of cream in mouth you will definitely get mild taste of fruit rather than tasting only cream taste. Hope you can understand my point.
Ahh thats true, it'll be tasteless. LOL
So is what your saying just adding a bit (or half) of the puree to the cream to give it the taste?
If thats so, i'll definitely try that. Thank you so much~! ^^
yes that is correct, addition of even little puree will give some flavor to the cream.
Hi, this recipe looks good and easy.. Mousse looks awesome. Before I make it please can you tell me if this sets well just like your strawberry mousse or is it a bit runny? Thanks!!
Yes, it will sets exactly like strawberry mousse, it is not runny at all.
First time at making Mango mousse, it was very easy and yummy, my children loved it.
Thanks Teena for the feedback. Happy to know that you and kids loved it.
