A mousse is typically a dessert which has set with a light foam-like consistency. The structure is obtained by the combined effects of functional ingredients - a gelling/stabilising agent and a foaming agent - and the whipping process used in manufacture. Ingredients are similar to those used in ice cream or yoghurt premixes, although higher percentages of gelling agents are used. These include gelatine, carrageenan, xanthan gum, guar gum, locust bean gum and alginates. Whipping agents include egg white (in "traditional" products), whey proteins, sodium and calcium stearoyl lactylates and lactic acid esters of mono - and di-glycerides of fatty acids. Some ingredients provide both gelling/stabilising and foaming properties.
