Prepare the vanilla mousse according to the package instructions. Whip the mascarpone until creamy and fold into the mousse, seasoning with sugar to taste. Layer the sponge fingers in a baking dish, soak them in half of the coffee and amaretto mixture (I always use a little less so the sponges don’t get soggy), arrange half of the berries on top (for fresh strawberries, chop large ones into small pieces), dust with powdered sugar according to taste and the acidity of the fruit, then add half of the cream; add another layer as directed. Refrigerate. Dust with cocoa powder before serving. Instead of the coffee and amaretto mixture, you can also use an orange juice and orange liqueur mixture.
