Transfer 6 tablespoons of the puree to a large bowl. Add the mussels, cockles, and tomatoes and toss to coat.
Tear off 4 20-inch long sheets of extra heavy-duty foil. Mound half of the seafood in the center of each of 2 foil sheets. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss with the remaining puree. Arrange the shrimp in a layer on the seafood.
Cover with the 2 remaining sheets of foil; fold up the edges all around to seal.
Grill the hobo packs over a hot fire for about 6 minutes, or until sizzling and puffed.
Using oven mitts, transfer the packs to a large rimmed platter. Open the packs carefully, pour the seafood into shallow bowls.
Serve with grilled garlic bread and enjoy.
