What is Lakanto?
The powdered sugar we used was Lakanto
I love using Lakanto’s Powdered Sugar. I talk about their line of products all the time, and if you are looking for any healthy sugars, (white, brown and powdered). If you don't care about the sugar-free option, use regular powdered sugar in place. It will taste amazing either way. I promise you!

How to Make Keto Fluffy Lemon Mousse
- Start out whipping cream cheese until smooth. Add whipping cream, powdered sugar and whip on medium-high speed to get fluffy and creamy. It should start forming soft peaks. Then, add lemon juice and pinch of salt and continue whipping to get fluffy mousse texture. Do not whip at high speed, to get best texture without overwhipping the texture.
Other Options for Lemon Mousse Filling
- If you want to use the lemon mousse as a filling, pie or layered dessert, use an 8x8 or 9x9 pan. Double recipe for 9x13 layered dessert.
- Make a layered cheesecake dessert easily with some layering of cookies or graham crackers, fresh fruit and some whipped topping.

I don't see why not? You could substitute lime or even orange for that matter! It's soo good!

Looks fantastic! Can limes also be used in place of lemons?
TIA!

Exactly! You can layer it with graham crackers or cookies or whatever you wish to give it some extra yumminess! Thank you Shauwan!!

This is EASY and light! My non-keto eaters ask for this for dessert but put graham crackers at the bottom of their bowl.

I love all tart and zesty things, so this luscious dessert is right for me! Also, this got me thinking that it could easily be transformed into a trifle or Eton Mess, just with the addition of meringues and lemon curd.
