Crowd-Pleasing & Gluten-Free: Perfect for guests with dietary restrictions.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Fresh raspberries

Lemon juice

Granulated sugar

Powdered sugar

Unflavored gelatin powder

Cold water

Heavy whipping cream

Vanilla extract

Pro Tips Before You Start

Bloom the Gelatin: Sprinkle gelatin over cold water first to ensure it dissolves smoothly.

Seed-Free Purée: Push heated raspberry mixture through a fine sieve for a velvety finish.

Chill Your Tools: Pop your mixing bowl and beaters into the fridge for extra-stable whipped cream.

Adjust Sweetness: Taste the warm purée before adding sugar—berry ripeness varies!

Gentle Folding: Use a rubber spatula to blend purée and cream, preserving volume.

How to Make Raspberry Mousse

Step 1: Bloom Gelatin
In a small bowl, combine 1 tsp gelatin with 2 Tbsp cold water.

Stir lightly and let stand 5 minutes.

Step 2: Cook Raspberry Purée
In a small saucepan, heat 2 cups raspberries, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 1 Tbsp lemon juice over medium heat.

Stir until berries break down and sugar dissolves, then remove from heat.

Whisk in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved.

Step 3: Strain & Cool
Push the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, discarding seeds.

Let purée cool to room temperature (~20 minutes).

Step 4: Whip the Cream
In a chilled bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream, 2 Tbsp powdered sugar, and ½ tsp vanilla on medium-high until soft peaks form.

Step 5: Fold & Fill
Gently fold one-third of the cooled purée into the whipped cream to lighten.

Fold in the remaining purée in two additions, keeping the mixture airy.

Divide among 4 serving glasses or ramekins.

Step 6: Chill to Set
Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours (or overnight) until firm and chilled through.

What to Serve With Raspberry Mousse

Fresh Berry Salad: Strawberries and blueberries add color and contrast.

Buttery Shortbread: Crisp cookies echo the mousse’s sweetness.

Mint Leaves: A sprig of mint brightens each spoonful.

Chocolate Shards: Dark chocolate curls lend a decadent touch.

Variations & Substitutions

Berry Blend: Swap half the raspberries for strawberries or blackberries.

Citrus Twist: Use lime juice instead of lemon for zesty flair.

Boozy Mousse: Stir in 1–2 Tbsp Chambord or raspberry liqueur before chilling.

Dairy-Free: Replace cream with coconut cream; use agar-agar in place of gelatin.

Sugar-Free: Substitute sugar with honey, maple syrup, or a sugar alternative.

Make-Ahead & Storage Tips

Advance Assembly: Complete through folding (Step 5), cover, and refrigerate up to 24 hours ahead.

Layered Dessert: Build in parfait glasses with granola or sponge cake layers just before serving.

Storage: Keep covered in the fridge up to 2 days; gently stir before serving if needed.

Frozen Treats: Pour mousse into popsicle molds and freeze for up to 1 week.

FAQs

Can I use frozen raspberries?
Yes—thaw fully, drain excess liquid, then proceed. Purée may be slightly thinner.

Why strain the purée?
Removing seeds gives the mousse a silky-smooth mouthfeel.

How do I know it’s set?
The surface should be firm and hold its shape when gently jiggled.

Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely—just use a larger bowl and adjust serving vessels.

What if gelatin doesn’t set?
Ensure the purée is cool before adding gelatin and use fresh powder within its date.

Is this kid-friendly?
Yes—skip any liqueur variations and adjust sweetness to taste.

How to decorate?
Add fresh berries, mint sprigs, or chocolate shavings just before serving.
