Instructions for ONE cake: Put both packets into a cup. Put 4 tablespoons of sugar into cup. Out of two cups, spoon 3 tblsp of juice into mixture (do ot use any other juice) until very smooth. Add two more tablespoons of juice to make it a bit more smoother. Meanwhile boil the remainder of the 2 cups of juice. Once it boils, remove immediately away from flame and stir the powder mixture into boilding juice with a wire whisk stiring fast and constantly watching out that no lumps occur. Pour or spoon over freshly decorated fruite Torte from the middle in circular motion. This mixture will stiffen immediately.  So you must be working very fast.
