Notes for Success:

I have an updated version of pumpkin mousse with a slightly easier method
Rather than the one linked in the recipe below as well as shown in the video
Or use  my recipe for No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake is a great option here too!

For the edible cups you will need some special tools and of course vegan white chocolate.
I use Kind David Brand White Chocolate as it is the only one I can find easily on Amazon and I like the taste of it too.
It does not have to be tempered unlike real chocolate couverture

A Sphere FlexiMold to make the cups is quite pricey for the actual Flex Mold Brand, but you can find a comparable one here at a cheaper cost.

The recipe below is listed for 8 individual cups filled with the mousse
But the recipe is actually going to give you slightly more mousse since the cups can only really take about 1/4 cup per each.
So do what you like with the excess mousse, either make more cups ~ probably closer to 12 servings  would use it all up

Coffee simple syrup for the cake soak is so delicious
But I know many of you are looking for an alternative so you can simply leave it out or use another flavor for the soak.
Additionally using brewed coffee instead of water to make the simple syrup will eliminate the need for the added ingredient of coffee granules

White Chocolate Pumpkin Mousse Latte
Prep Time 3 hours
Total Time 3 hours

Ingredients

for the chocolate cups

  • Vegan White Chocolate 1lb (454g) *see notes

other recipes needed

For the Coffee Simple Syrup:

  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 Tablespoon instant coffee granules *see notes

for the garnish

Instructions

  1. First make your white chocolate coffee cups according to the video tutorial, these can be made days or weeks in advance & stored in an airtight, cool dry place until needed. See notes for the vegan white chocolate that I use as it does not need to be tempered!
  2. Prepare the white cake (*or any cake recipe of your choice) and bake the batter in a sheet pan
  3. While the cake is baking, combine the water with the sugar in a small sauce pot and bring to a boil.
  4. Boil for 1 minute and then remove from the heat, add the coffee granules, stir to dissolve, then reserve until later
  5. Once the cake is baked & cooled you will cut out discs the same diameter as the coffee cup rim & trim each disc to approximately ¼" thickness
  6. Prepare the pumpkin mousse according to the instructions on that post, but be sure to have your cups ready since you will have to pour the mousse into each cup so it can set inside the cup.
  7. Divide the mousse between all of your coffee cups and then place a white cake disc on top of each one, press it into the mousse slightly then brush each cake disc generously with the coffee simple syrup
  8. You will use approximately 2Tbs of syrup each
  9. Next prepare your vegan whipped cream and pipe a swirl on top of each mousse cup
  10. Sprinkle with cinnamon or more cake crumbs

    Aquafaba is unhealthy and not recommended for consumption. How about replacing it with water and agar. How would that work?

      instead of water and agar you could try Orgran egg replacer. Agar is an entirely different medium and you only need a very small amount.

      Oh my goodness, Gretchen! Those White Chocolate Pumpkin Mousse Lattes are beautiful! While I appreciate the vegan recipes, I do miss having access to your old recipes.

    Hi Gretchen, I would like to try your white chocolate cake as it looks delicious…I am not vegan but cannot have dairy, so would it be OK if I substitute the egg replacement for 1 egg? Thanks. PS. Your recipes are inspiring. Wx
