So I have only made it once and messed it up. . . I am going to try again with melted chocolate and see if that works better, but I was wondering if it would "last" (like still taste good) if I fill the cake (the Wilton one with a heart in the middle) tonight for a cake that is due on Thursday. . . What do you all think?

The mousse will be fine if it's in the fridge.

what recipe did u originally use? Cose I have made a chocolate mousse filling once that tasted awesome and really chocolatey, it does need refridgeration thought cose it's a real one that has cream in it......Let me knw if you want it and i'll go look for it

Today I will be trying http://cakecentral.com/recipes/5443/chocolate-mousse

Thanks so much for the help!!

Easy chocolate mousse...make some ganache and let it sit to room temp (but not solid)....then make some sweetened fresh whipped cream....fold the ganache into the whipped cream.....voila! Chocolate mousse. Refrigerates nice and firm, great filling.

I am not super skilled at things and have NO idea about how to go about making ganache.. . .

Mmmm...I love chocolate mousse! It's the best!

Thanks!! I am very excited to try it sometime!
