Whip the cream until just soft peaks form. Quickly fold in half of it, then gently fold in the remaining cream. Pour the chocolate mousse into a shallow dish and chill for at least 3 hours.

Before serving, peel and halve the kiwis, cutting them into pieces. Peel the orange so that all white pith is removed; cut out the fruit segments between the membranes. Dice the pineapple into small cubes. Halve the pomegranate and use a spoon to release the seeds. Mix all fruits together.

Spoon one mound of chocolate mousse onto each plate and arrange the mixed fruits around it. Melt the remaining chocolate over a water bath and drizzle it over the mousse with a fork. Sprinkle about 1 tsp of oat flakes on top and garnish with mint leaves. Serve the chocolate mousse with fruits.
