A NOTE ON CALORIE COUNT, NUTRITIONAL INFO AND SERVING SIZES
Due to my past experiences, I do not include most of the above information within my recipes as it is unsafe for me to do so personally. While I try to share a rough estimate when it comes to the serving size, please note that it is very subjective as we all have different hunger levels both from person to person and even from meal to meal.
If any of the above information is important to you, I understand! We are all different and have various goals and needs. If you’d like, you are welcome to calculate the information needed based on the ingredients you use when making one of my recipes.
I hope you understand! This comes from a place of love and protection both for myself and others like me. If you ever have any questions, send me an Instagram message for the quickest response time! Thank you for being here!

Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- If using, cover the bottom of each mini pot with a piece of foil.
- Cut the tops off the strawberries, then cut each one into fourths.
- Add cut strawberries, honey, vanilla bean paste and salt to a blender and blend until fully combined.
- In a large bowl, whip your heavy cream using either a stand mixer or hand mixer. Whip until ripples form and cream is a whipped cream consistency. Be sure not to over mix or it will be too dry!
- Pour the strawberry mixture into the whipped cream and gently fold it in with a spatula. Do so slowly and until just fully mixed with no steaks of color remaining.
- Pour equal amounts of the mixture into each pot, then cover them and place in the fridge to set for at least 3 hours or until firm. I prefer to let them set overnight.
- In a food processor, combine the graham crackers and cocoa powder and pulse for form a "soil" topping.
- Right before you serve the mousse, top with the "soil" mixture, then stick a food safe floral stem or herb in the center.
