Made with fresh strawberries and naturally dairy-free ingredients, this mousse is sweet, refreshing, and absolutely irresistible. Perfect for brunch, date night, summer parties, or anytime you’re craving a light, dreamy dessert. 💗✨

🍓 Ingredients

For the mousse:

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries (or frozen, thawed)
  • 1 cup coconut cream (the thick part from a chilled can)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup or agave
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch or agar agar + 2 tbsp water (optional — helps it set fluffier)

For topping:

  • Fresh sliced strawberries
  • Mint leaves
  • Vegan sprinkles or coconut flakes (optional)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Blend the strawberries

Add fresh strawberries to a blender and puree until completely smooth. If you prefer a seed-free mousse, strain the mixture — totally optional.

2️⃣ Whip the coconut cream

In a chilled bowl, beat the coconut cream with a hand mixer until fluffy.
Stir in maple syrup and vanilla extract.

3️⃣ Thicken the strawberry mixture (optional but recommended)

In a small pot, whisk your strawberry puree with the cornstarch slurry or agar mixture.
Heat for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened, then let cool.

4️⃣ Fold it all together

Gently fold the strawberry mixture into the whipped coconut cream until the mousse is smooth, pink, and airy.

5️⃣ Chill & serve

Spoon into glasses and refrigerate for at least 1 hour for the perfect fluffy set.
Top with strawberry slices, mint, and a sprinkle of something pretty. 🌱✨

🌿 Tips

✨ For extra fluff, whip aquafaba (chickpea water) and fold it in.
✨ Want it sweeter? Add 1 extra tablespoon maple syrup.
✨ Use mixed berries for a “pink sunset” mousse.
✨ Keeps 3–4 days in the fridge.

This Vegan Strawberry Mousse is creamy, fruity, and unbelievably simple — a dessert that feels indulgent but is secretly wholesome and plant-powered. 🌸🍓💛
