From what I can see, this is a normal sponge cake, with curry powder in place of icing sugar, and yoghurt and mango chutney in the centre. I am amazed by their culinary ingenuity but slightly nervous about actually tasting it.

This is a step on from last year's pizza cakes, that were sort of cupcake sized, with a bit of salt instead of sugar, and pepperoni, cheese and green pepper on them. That actually worked.

I bet this will work too. Sounds pretty good, if you don't think of it as dessert.

The cake itself could have done with being a bit lighter, and I think there's some curry powder in the mix itself, but there's also some sugar, which is a bit jarring.
I don't actually like mango chutney very much but the yoghurt kind of works in this though. It's a weird mishmash of flavours and I'm not sure they actually work. It's interested, but I'm not sure I'll be tempted to eat the rest of it.

Get rid of the curry powder and use the less savoury specific indian spices you'd have something nice.

But it's for your birthday, so you have to eat it all and can't let them know it sucks? :-)

I think cardamom, clove, cinnamon would get the job done. But ... Would it not just taste Christmas-y without cumin, coriander, etc.
