Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch tube pan.
In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, pudding mix, and yellow cake mix. Beat for 3 minutes, then stir in the coconut. Pour into prepared pan.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool 10 minutes before frosting.
In a large bowl, stir together the eggs, butter, and 1 cup of sugar until smooth. Gradually stir in the flour mixture, then the baking soda, then the salt, and finally the chopped coconut. Using a wooden spoon, gradually stir together the milk and remaining 1/2 cup of sugar until a stiff, but not dry, mixture is formed. Stir in the vanilla. Chill in refrigerator at least 2 hours before storing.
To make the frosting, combine the frosting mix with the strawberries and blueberries. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the water, until just frothy. To make the filling: In a small bowl, beat cream with mixer until frothy. Gradually add the gelatin, then the remaining 1 cup of sugar, then the baking soda. Finally, stir in the unflavored gelatin mixture.
With a large glass, combine 1/2 cup of sugar with 1 cup flour and 1/2 cup of milk; mix just to combine. Fold in the rest of the flour mixture. Press into the bottom and sides of the prepared pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and prick the cake with a fork. Allow to cool before frosting.
