Well this is not a taker for the Gold Medal Master A., but there is a 
tradition
we have in Britain, (not done so much these days) that the top tier of an 
iced Wedding cake is supposed to be kept for use as a Christening cake for 
the first born....  I'm wondering if the Royal Icing helps preserve the 
cake....?
