Tips
Creating a light and refreshing dessert can sometimes require substitutions for certain ingredients. For example, if you don't have coconut for the mousse, you could try using almond or cashew milk for a similar flavor. If you don't have pistachios for the shortbread, you could use almonds or walnuts instead. Experimenting with different ingredient substitutions can result in a unique and delicious dessert that suits your taste preferences and dietary needs.
