Fruit Mousses

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Whip two cups of cream stiff. If the thin cream is used, drain it through a sieve before adding to the pulp. Mix enough sugar to the pulp to sweeten — the amount depends upon the acidity of the fruit — then mix with the cream, pour in a mould, pack in ice and salt for three hours, using two measures of ice to one of salt. Raspberries and peaches make very delicious mousse, the flavor of the preserved being almost as good as the fresh fruit.
