A Cloud in a Cup: The Parisian Dream Dessert
In the heart of Paris, where cafés line cobbled streets and dessert is considered an art form, chocolate mousse ("mousse au chocolat") reigns supreme. Its name means "foam" in French, and it was first whipped into existence in the 18th century by French chefs looking to turn chocolate into air-light magic. Elegant, rich, and surprisingly simple, this treat captures the French talent for turning few ingredients into something magnifique!
