The melange consists of three layers. For the first layer, soak three gelatin sheets in cold water and squeeze out the excess water. Gently warm 100 ml of sparkling wine and dissolve the gelatin in it. Season to taste with 1 teaspoon of sugar, the seeds of half a vanilla pod, and a little lemon juice. Peel and segment the oranges. Add them and divide them into four glasses. Refrigerate for about an hour. For the second layer, mix 100 ml of elderflower syrup with 100 g of yogurt, a little powdered sugar, and lemon juice to taste. Soak two gelatin sheets in cold water and squeeze out the excess water. Gently warm 50 ml of whipping cream and dissolve the gelatin in it. Add to the yogurt mixture. Whip 100 ml of whipping cream until stiff peaks form and fold in. Spread over the chilled jelly in the glasses and refrigerate for another hour. For the third layer, season 200 ml of orange juice with sugar and lemon juice and reduce to about 150 ml. Stir in the seeds of half a vanilla pod. Soak 3 sheets of gelatin in cold water and squeeze out any excess liquid. Then dissolve in the orange juice. Let the jelly cool slightly and pour it over the elderflower mousse. Return to the refrigerator for another hour.
