Blackberry Mousse Made Easy

Hi Everyone,

This is where I start with a confession to having a total berry addiction in summer.

When I first moved to Switzerland work colleagues of mine would eat nothing other than a whole pineapple a day. When it is super hot I sometimes feel as though I could survive the whole day on berries… although somewhere carbs, cereal and other stuff also always creeps in – haha.

In any case this super simple blackberry mousse is truly my favourite easy summer dessert recipe – recently found in my local COOP supermarket (and nope this is not an ad).
