Remove the crusts from the bread and cut into cubes. Oil a 9 x 13 baking dish. Spread half of the bread cubes over the bottom of the pan. Cut cream cheese into cubes and distribute over bread layer. Spread berries over the cream cheese. Place remaining bread cubes over top.
Beat the eggs, maple syrup and milk together well. Pour over bread. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight. Press down on foil to make sure bread completely soaks up egg mixture.
In the morning, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake with foil on for 30 minutes, then remove foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes until center is set and top is lightly browned. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Berry Sauce.
Berry Sauce:
Stir together water, sugar, cornstarch, and berries over medium heat until thickened. Add butter and stir until melted. Pour over individual pieces of French toast with a twist of lemon for decoration.
