- Ensure your mixing bowls and utensils are clean and dry before starting to avoid any contamination that could affect the texture of the mousse.
- Use fresh lemons and limes for zesting and juicing, as they provide the best flavor and most aromatic oils.
- When whipping the heavy cream, be careful not to overwhip it, as it can turn into butter. Stop once it forms soft peaks.
- To avoid lumps in your mousse, dissolve the gelatin powder thoroughly according to the package instructions before mixing it with other ingredients.
- For the best results, allow the mousse to chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to set properly.
