Pomegranate mousse cake

POMEGRANATE- one of the most powerful, nutrient dense and anti-oxidant fruit. Its main origin is PERSIA. Its one of an oldest fruit which is known to be found in many religious and cultural writings. Dried pomegranate seeds are used in many Mughlai and other cuisines
Pomegranate is my son’s one of the favorite fruit. He loves to have it in any form, so thought to give it a different avatar. So made this pomegranate mousse which was ready in minimum time and was over in no time. It had tanginess of lemon, sweetness, color and goodness of pomegranate juice. For the base of mousse cake I have used here chocolate sponge as chocolates and chocolate cakes are kids all time favorite.
You can use vanilla sponges or digestive biscuits as a base
Here’s the recipe of my pomegranate mousse cake, a very yummy, easy to make dessert which will definitely be loved by all.
