Notes
I prefer using chocolate couverture over chocolate compound as it is real chocolate that has cocoa butter. It will give your chocolate mouse a heavenly, smooth and silky texture to it. The brand I used was Callebaut’s milk chocolate callets. Other excellent chocolate brands are Lindt, Godiva, Ghirardelli. Look at the chocolate percentage. I suggest using compound chocolate only for garnishes or templates.
