How long should I chill the mousse before serving?

It's best to chill the mousse for at least two hours. This allows it to set properly and achieve the best texture for serving.

What is the best way to store leftover mousse?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Consume within three days for the best quality.
