Fortina and arabica mousse

We feel the urge to quote Peter Hernou, championing latte artist: 'coffee and chocolate are a match made in heaven'. You'll find that they truly are when trying this recipe, using Callebaut's blend of origins Fortina. A dark chocolate that pairs extremely well with coffees.
