Learn to make a traditional French Chocolate Mousse with this FREE video 

Wow, so easy to understand & got good tips & explanation as well. Good video on how to make it! Love it, subscribed 😎

It’s really funny the fact that the little chef hanging on the wall looks exactly the same as the real chef.

I love how he is not focusing on anything besides his real work, with no pretence and unnecessary presentation. Not to forget he doesn’t ask to “click the subscribe button” 😆

i love how he does not waste any of the remaining ingredients in the different bowls and scrape them, till there are almost squeky clean :) great recipe! merci

1. I made the recipe and it was fabulous! I used 75% cacao chocolate (Callebaut) and a little less sugar and it was still plenty sweet. (2) This fellow's presentation makes for pleasant watching. I love listening to his accent and watching him. He clearly cares a lot about teaching in a way that is helpful. He covers all the things NOT to do as well as to do. I suspect he's done a fair amount of in-person teaching. (3) As others said, no music, no strange camera shots, nothing extraneous to just good learning. I could watch him all day! I'm sorry to see he's stopped making videos. Thank you, Mr. FrenchApprentice, you are appreciated!

Hey Chef, good to see you still teaching, long time since my apprenticeship. Best teacher

Looooooove it.. Infact the love the tips too.. I made using this recipe and it was spot on 'perfect mousse chocolate '.. thank you sir.. You are simply the best and you happen to be our (me and my husband's) favorite teacher. Merci.. And i too love the part you don't waste anything.. :) For those of you looking for the best chocolate mousse recipe, this is 'the one and only' :) happy cooking

What a great video!... he just made/ taught everything in the truest way himself... in honest way. Thanks, chef... you are a good person. God bless you always!

Beautiful, I started cooking this year, I am very proud of myself, my family loves my food. I love to see the pleasure people feel when they taste something that makes them feel special. Never rush a cook, patience always.

Chocolate Mousse : 180g chocolate, 100g cream, 6 egg yolks, 6 egg whites, 100g sugar I hope this helps with a lot of ur questions. I'm a young chef & been doin these for yrs.. This is the "traditional" way of making mousse so if ur afraid with salmonela, be sure as always you use 'fresh' eggs.. and mix the eggs to the chocolate when it's hot enough to kill the bacteria. Enjoy! Merci Chef Allan! Cheers! 😊

I make the French style Chocolate Mousse with eggs and my favorite tweaks to make it mine. I served it last Christmas for dessert. As I was eating mine I suddenly realized the only sound I could hear was the crackling fire in the fireplace. I looked up to see a room full of people cuddled up with their champagne flute of mousse savoring it as if it was something unearthly delivered straight from heaven. You know the recipe is good when it can silence grownups and children.

He is so passionate about his baking. I love this mousse au chocolat by the way. Incredible consistency and flavor profile. Kudos!

Oh he's lovely. love his accent. very amusing.

I think this should become a standard for the adult film industry

I made this recipe as a dessert shooter for my daughter’s Sweet 16 Bday to make it a bit more special and everyone looooved it! Soooo smooth :) My mom bought some to share at her workplace the following day and now I have orders! Thank you chef for the very awesome tutorial!

The video is made 7 years ago and he is still liking the comments, thank you for this recipe, probably gonna try it soon

Best teacher ever! So laidback and I paid my attention to every single word that you've said, sir!

A great, no-nonsense and easy-to-follow presentation. Always nice to see a true professional at work. I love making chocolate mousse and if I do the "proper" classic french version, I do this one and it is always a hit. Thank you.

Absolutely love his tutorial! He explains step by step and with great detail. First time making chocolate Mousse and it turned out perfect!! If he has more tutorials I would definitely refer to them.

I made this recipe today for my family and me. I didn’t like the idea of raw eggs so I pasteurised them. They turned absolutely beautiful. It was light and airy, yet decadent and rich. I’m so grateful that you shared this recipe! Thank you!

Great video. AND I love that he takes the time to make sure he gets everything out of a bowl like when he pours the cream.

Thank you this looks great I’ll have to make it. I love the fact that he is using the whole eggs. There is no waste

Perfect Mousse Chocolate. Adore the presentation, great tips also. Alain is so sompatic. I LOoove it!

i made this today and it was delicious! thanks!! it was perfect... light and not too rich

Hey, just thought you might like to know that I served this recipe to my girlfriend when I proposed to her tonight (she said yes!)

I’ve been using this recipe for years, it’s the best I’ve found here. It’s always turned out great. I tend to add an extra egg, otherwise it can get a little chocolatey for my taste, still excellent. The chef is an excellent teacher too, making things clear and easy to remember. I wish he had more videos though.

This was easy to follow and turned out perfect. My French dinner guest didn’t believe it was my first attempt at mouse, and stated it was exactly how it should be, light and not too sweet. Thank you!

merci beaucoup !!!!!the best mousse recipe ever , it worked out beautifully :)

I have made so many variations of chocolate mousse but THIS recipe is by far the Best. I have literally just made it and this version is like the top quality restaurants would serve. This recipe is absolutely the lightest and yet full of flavour.. Good tip about the type of chocolate being genuine dark chocolate instead of the sugar loaded style as in bars of chocolate sold in the supermarket. The dark chocolate takes on a much lighter appearance and taste without too much sweetness. I used the cream as you mentioned you could use either butter or cream. Thank you Alain so much for sharing your recipe - I wont look at any other recipe after trying this delight.

Thank you so much, Alain! Did the recipe today and it was a success. Big thanks from Brazil!

Best mousse recipe I've ever found. No lumps, no grainy bits of unmelted chocolate, and deliciously light. It's the attention to detail that makes the difference, e.g. the clear explanation of how best to melt chocolate. Merci monsieur!

I really appreciate this programme. It is straight-forward, educational, and clear. I have been cooking for years and I am not bad at all. But when I want to learn something new, too much music and clever camera angles get in the way. This is perfect. It makes me think of La Technique and La Method - no fuss, solid cooking that gets results. Patisserie is my weak area; I will be delving deeper into your channel!

I made this today and it is the best and most balanced mousse I have ever made! Thank you so much for this recipe!

Thank you Chef, absolutely beautiful recipe, it's really looks easy. Cheers🤗

Ah! Your presence when teaching reminds me of my old chef teacher im school, Ib Klinge! Also, i feel your passion for your food makes you a genius!

Fantastic video! Having failed to make a good chocolate mousse pretty much ever, I was amazed at how well this recipe turned out. I think the secret is not to have either the chocolate or cream too hot. Thank you so much!!

I did this yesterday, followed your recipe to the letter, and the result is absolutely divine. Merci monsieur!

You're my favorite chef! thanks for that cool recipe!

Thank you so much for posting this video. We love your personality too - please make more videos! You brought such joy into this video and it made every difference!

Love the way you explain the process. Your French accent is very infectious, in a good way.

the moment he made sure to scrape everything cleanly, i immediately decided to subscribe to him

Bonjour, Je viens de la faire et elle est absolument délicieuse ! Elle est omogène et la texture est parfaite même au fond du bol. Merci pour avoir partagé votre savoir. Bise d'une Française du Panama

perfect Chocolate Mousse ever. I love the way you talk with beautiful accent. Thank you so much and God Bless.

I love that you explain the reason for what to do- I find this the best teaching because I understand the process- many thanks 🙏 amazing food 🥰

I made it and it really is a beautiful chocolate mousse! The BEST!

One of my top 3 recipe videos! Thank you!

I made this several times got lots of compliments. Thanks to the chef . Very rich in taste

It's perfect thank you for this recipe it just works! And with your explanation it's hard to mess up

You are the sweetest cook ever! delicious! thank you!

This is my third attempt making chocolate mousse. The first one was too thick because I melted butter with the chocolate. The second was too airy because I tried omitting egg yolks entirely (this resulted in an airy, but grainy texture because I added all the sugar at once). This one is perfect. It's silky, airy, and light. It's chocolatey, but isn't too much. It's like biting a cloud made of chocolate. Thank you so much Chef for sharing this. I can't wait to pull it out of the fridge tomorrow!!!

Merci beaucoup pour l'incroyable recette. Le résultat est magnifique! Salutations de la Grèce!

Fantastic video and recipe! Very easy to follow and made an amazing dessert. Topped mine with some fresh whipped cream and sliced strawberries and everyone loved it.

Love the way he speaks..love his sense of humour...excellent mousse

Your so cute! You remind me of my uncle, you sound and act just like him. I’m so excited to make this recipe later😊 Merci

LOVE this tutorial! I recreated this mousse with 4 eggs, increased the cream and also added passionfruit pulp for a secondary flavour (as they say, there are as many mousses as there are chefs). Turned out absolutely amazing! It’s all about the technique, thanks for sharing your skills!

Love his clear explanations...true french chef!

Tried it. C'est magnifique!

Thank you chef ... the recipe looks so easy with your explanation and good tips. Will definitely make it!

Made this today and.. WOW! Thank you for sharing!

I could listen to you all day

This is an excellent tutorial and recipe. Have made it several times and it doesn't fail! Merci de la recette, M. Desgranges!

Great recipe! the way all the aspects are explained, it makes following the recipe very easy. Made it today and the result was awesome! My family loved the mousse. Thank you

Im very pleased with the results. Used the Lindt 85% Chocolate. She has a very dark and not sugary taste. Dont take more sugar, even if you think the mousse ends up to dark. This is perfect, not to sweet, not to dark. Thank you for this recipe.

I love the fact he doesn’t waist any of the creme or chocolate on the bowls. Respect.

Phenomenal information, on point and humble, humorous…what else could you ask for!! Great video!

I love his passion!

I tried this recipe as according to the Chef and I have to say, your method is the best way to make a brilliant chocolate mousse! Well done Chef!
