1/2 cup apple juice concentrate
1 pound light cream cheese
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup finely chopped raisins
1 1/2 tsp unflavored gelatin

Set aside 2 tablespoons of the juice concentrate. Process the remaining juice concentrate, the cream cheese, vanilla, & raisins in a blender or food processor until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Stir the gelatin into the 2 tablespoons juice concentrate in a small saucepan; let stand 1 minute to soften. Heat to boiling and stir to dissolve gelatin. Beat the gelatin mixture into the cream cheese mixture until well blended. Refrigerate just until the frosting begins to set, about 30-60 minutes. Frost cake.
