The beauty of this dessert is that it is made without using gelatine! use milk chocolate to make the milk chocolate mousse, and white chocolate to make the white chocolate mousse. When you want to use it in a mousse-cake, juts fill this mousse in a piping bag fitted with a nozzle when it is semi-set, pour into the desired mould and then allow it to set.
