Can the filling for this mousse be made all the way to hold for the demo or will it get too stiff to push through the EAD?
 
I think it would do just the opposite. I think it would be so runny that it would just seep out. I'm not really too sure on that though.:confused:
 
I do it all the time to fill martini glasses

I did this at a open house and put it in the EAD and it got to stiff to push through the EAD and I looked like a idiot b/c I had just been talking about how easy the EAD was to use!!!
 
Hi there! Yes, the filling for this mousse can definitely be made ahead of time and stored until the demo. However, if you find that it becomes too stiff to push through the EAD, you can try adding a little bit of milk or cream to loosen it up. I hope that helps! Happy cooking!
