Butter a 1-1/2 quart souffle dish, and layer a third of the brioches slices in it. Cover it with a layer of half the apples. Add a third of the egg custard mixture.  Arrange another layer of a third of the brioche, the remaining apples, and all of the berries. Slowly add the remaining custard, and cover with the remaining brioche slices and the rest of the custard. 

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes at 350 degrees, until the custard has set and the brioche is delicately browned. Sprinkles with the confectioner's sugar, and serve at room temperature. Serves 8.
