Continue boiling until it turns golden in color and caramelizes. Once it´s ready pour and spread into a 12-cup fluted tube pan . (Very careful not burn yourself.)
• Mix the evaporated milk, condensed milk, the cream cheese, and 4 eggs in a blender. Pour strained mixture over the caramel.
• Mix the 3 eggs, orange zest, water and oil in with the cake mix, until well blended. Once it´s ready place it carefully over the cream cheese mixture. Cover pan with foil sprayed with cooking spray, sprayed-side down. Place in larger pan. Add enough water to larger pan to come halfway up side of tube pan. Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cake. Leave to cool completely at room temperature, and invert onto plate. Refrigerate for 4 hours. Serve topped with grated chocolate or whipped topping, optional.

• Place sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract in a blender; blend until smooth.
• Place sugar in an even layer in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until edges start to brown, about 1 minute; drag sugar into the center with a spatula once the edges start to brown. Continue cooking, stirring from time to time, until caramel is an even golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
