Mousses can be either sweet or savoury dishes. The name "mousse" is the French for foam, and pretty much describes what the dish is.
With both sweet and savoury versions possible, many different ingredients can be used to make a mousse.
The ingredients are foamed, so that air bubbles are incorporated into them, so they need to be in a suitable state to be foamed in the first place, by, perhaps, melting or puréeing them as appropriate.
The texture of the finish mousse can vary; it can be fluffy or thick depending on how it is made.
Cream is a popular base ingredient for making dessert mousses, which will then have other ingredients added for the flavour; chocolate being a popular choice.
