Mix the gelatine with the cold water and leave to bloom for 5 minutes. Mix the quark with 180 g sugar, 8 g vanilla sugar and the lemon zest mix. Gently warm the gelatine until dissolved, without boiling, then add the lemon juice. Whisk a little quark into the gelatine to temper it, then whisk back into the remaining quark.
