Hopefully it should still taste ok, just slightly less spongy than intended.
I'll have to compensate by using a lot of chocolate icing...

Was there ever a problem that couldn't be solved by large amounts of chocolate?

The question is, will Galaxy buttercream icing in the centre be overkill?

Galaxy on top and buttercream in the middle, just like my mother does it. Very Highly Recommended!

Just make sure you have taken the greaseproof paper off the cake BEFORE you put the butter cream in it and take it to the table!

This year I was finding it hard to cut up my daughters birthday cake ... it wasn't until I had cut about half of it that I realised that I had left one circle of silicone paper on the cake... luckily strong stuff that slid out as I cut each slice, and I was then able to pull out in one peice

You could maybe get a few hundred grand from Tate Modern for it if you pretend it is some sort of comment on society.
