Add sugar to the bowl, mix and let it stand for 40–60 minutes to allow the gelatin to swell. My gelatin does not require soaking, so I skip this step. But follow the instructions specific to your type of gelatin.

While the first layer is setting, immediately prepare the second one. Pour berry juice—mine is forest berries—into a bowl and add gelatin and sugar. If your gelatin requires time to bloom, combine all the juice types with the gelatin at the same time.
