Should I add cardamom to a yellow cake mix base or to the buttercream frosting?

I'm using King Arthur Flour's gluten-free cake mix for the first time but want to make it more investing. I'm layering lemon curd in-between but also thought cardamom might be nice.

I think I'd spice the cake. The lemon filing and buttercream frosting will be nice counter points.
