The mixture will be very liquid and this is how it should be, do not add more flour.
In the meantime, prepare the sugar veil. I used about 120 g of icing sugar. Add a drop at a time of orange juice into the powdered sugar and start mixing. You need to get a smooth frosting neither liquid nor thick.
