Photo of the Day: Cool Chocolate Mousse
More chocolate mousses should have a swirly-wirly spiral shape like the gumball machine slides. Friends of the bloggers at LUNCH made this, and we can't stop staring at it.

Thanks for posting our photo! It is rather striking, no?
A bit of clarification, this was not made by our friends but rather they purchased it at a bakery in Brooklyn near where they live...

OK so this is what we've found out about the chocolate mousse tower. Our friends picked it up from Greene Provisions in Brooklyn. Green Provisions gets it (along with some other desserts) from a local baker named Michael Allen. They did not know if he had a storefront or website.

I've used this mold before, I think that they sell them at JB Prince. It actually looks like a cake rather than a mousse (I see cracks along the bottom). Should be fairly easy to replicate if you want the fantasy to become reality. Or you could just buy one. :)
