Melt the chocolate using a bain-marie or in the microwave using 30 second bursts. Pour the melted chocolate into the food processor and pulse a few times until it is incorporated. Don’t overdo it as you’ll start to pop some of the bubbles we whipped up. NOTE: Avoid using pineapple, kiwi, papaya, or mango in their raw form as they contain bromelain, an enzyme that breaks down the gelatin, preventing the cake from setting. Instead of a firm cake, you'll end up with a "soup" cake. Trust me, I learned this lesson early in my baking career, having to scoop up the cake with spoons from soup bowls. 🧑‍🍳 How to make this Orange Charlotte Cake: Vegan Chocolate Orange Mousse Cake – need I say more?!?

This type of cake is also known as Charlotte Russe Cake and is a sweet treat made by lining a mold with ladyfingers and filling it up with fruit, custard, or mousse. Ultimately if you cannot avoid a bit of leaked mousse, it doesn’t matter too much. You can just scrape the mousse off at the very end with a spatula before covering entirely with ganache so no one can see it!

Slide the mould off carefully, then put the cake into the fridge for 10 minutes while you make the glaçage.

They certainly don’t grow in the cold and sometimes harsh Nordic climate. But as it turns out, Norwegians adore oranges, particularly in the spring. 20 million oranges are consumed in Norway over the course of the Easter holiday each year. It is thought that this tradition originated from Norwegian merchant ships returning at Easter time with the year’s first citrus harvest from southern Europe. Surely a welcome sight after a long, dark winter. Ingredients This chocolate orange mousse might sound complicated on paper, but couldn't be easier to make and is tasty to boot!

You can use any flavour chocolate you want instead – you don’t even have to use Terry’s Chocolate Orange.. you could use the Lindt version instead. Or, you can use Dark Chocolate in this recipe instead of Milk, but I wouldn’t advise using White as it would be far too sweet! I’ve actually made this into a delicious dessert by using my Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cookie Bars, and topping it with this mousse. It makes like a trifle of sorts, with some whipped cream added on top is ideal. I decided to top these mousses with cream as well because you all know I love it… and it makes it look that little bit better!One of my favourite parts of this mousse is that it has loads of fresh orange juice inside it! What a way to really emphasis that irresistible juicy, citrusy flavour. Make sure you are using SILKEN tofu for this recipe not regular tofu. I use Clearspring organic silken tofu.

It will start to soften up as soon as it comes out of the fridge. See my photo below,it's a bit darker and more dense.
