Another error is over-whipping the mixture. This leads to a grainy texture. Be careful to stop as soon as you see soft peaks. Also, don’t skip the salt! A pinch of salt balances the sweetness and enhances flavor. Lastly, avoid adding too much pumpkin puree. Too much can make your foam too heavy. You can enhance your cold foam in many ways.
