Prepare lemon sugar syrup. In a small saucepan, bring 1/4 cup sugar, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup water to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Pour over the cake slices. Place casserole in refrigerator while preparing the filling.
Place the softened cream cheese in the large bowl of an electric mixer. Mix the cream cheese well scraping down the sides until it is well mixed. Add the sugar and mix again scraping down the sides until well blended. Add the milk slowly whiles blending and scraping down the sides until mixture is a creamy consistency with no lumps of cream cheese. Then add the pudding mix and blend again. Check after 2 minutes the mixture should start to thicken up.
Once the mixture starts to thicken, add the Cool Whip and slowly blend in. Scrape down the sides and finish blending with a large rubber spatula. Spread the filling on top of the cake layer. Return to the refrigerator to firm up at least one hour.
Clean berries. In a large bowl slice the berries and add the whole blueberries. Stir in the sugar. Set aside while preparing the cake. Serve cake in individual bowls or on a dessert plate. Top with the additional cool whip and the berry mixture.
