Thanks, MaryKa -- I've never thought of tomato soup as a liquid for a sweet cake but most tomatoes are really sweet and with all these spices it might be similar to an Indian food flavor by the end. I do love spice cake! I can see how with no sugar (referring to the story in the Dumbbell thread) this recipe may not be sweet enough. I think I am going to try it! Thank you for posting this!

I had a can of tomato soup in my pantry so I decided to make this and see if my contractor could tell what the secret ingredient was. He couldn't, and he ate half of a loaf in one sitting!
It was surprisingly good.
