Place the base on a cake plate and enclose it with a cake ring. Dissolve the gelatine in 250 ml of blood orange juice according to the instructions. Whisk together the quark, sugar, and buttermilk, then add the dissolved gelatine while stirring. Whisk the cream until stiff peaks form and fold in when it begins to set. Spread the mixture on the sponge cake and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Then, using the remaining 150 ml of blood orange juice and the syrup, make the glaze and cover the cake with it. Refrigerate the cake for another 30 minutes. Before serving, sprinkle the outer edge of the cake with the brittle and place a sprig of lemon balm in the center.
