Desserts for some adult consumers are associated with being somewhat [indulgent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ambrosia-deluxe) and unhealthy, so the Gü dessert mousses are a new line from the brand that aims to offer a permissible treat to enjoy.

The Gü mousse flavors includes Mango with a Punchy Mango & Passionfruit Coulis, Strawberry with a Fresh & Tangy Strawberry Compote and Chocolate & Toffee with a Silky Chocolate Creme. Each one is positioned to be inherently tasty in composition yet capable of being enjoyed without the [associated guilt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mller-light) that many other desserts bring with them.

As more consumers look for ways to enjoy their favorite foods without the feeling of guilt, we'll likely see more products like the Gü dessert mousses being brought to the market. The Gü mousses will stay launching in supermarkets in the UK starting in mid-July.
