When the coffee has cooled, mix the rest of the gelatin into it. Carefully brush the coffee mixture on the ladyfingers in the bottom of the bowl. They should be saturated but not soggy. Mix the liqueur into the preserves. Brush the ladyfingers with half of the preserves. Add half of the cream on top of the preserves. Top with about 1 inch layer of raspberries. Repeat with preserves, cream and raspberries until full or no more left. Chill well or at least 2 hours. Sift powdered sugar and cocoa mix over the top.
