If they only wanted to cut the icing, Im sure they'd have cut either only at the top or at the bottom not both. Why go through the trouble of icing a "fake" cake when you can ice a real one. The cake's not the hard part, the icing is.
Anyway, you can choose to believe whatever you want.

humera, i watched the video of the wedding again, i rewinded the part where they cut the cake and if you see it they are barely touching the cake with the knife.
anyway that is how they do it in Jordan, the whole cake is fake except for the top tier, that is just how they do it.

To the people who were arguing that Hamzah and Noor's wedding cake could not possibly have been real, because it was so "smooth and didn't wiggle":

They more than likely used fondant icing on it. Fondant is not actually an icing, but a paste made of sugar [and it doesn't taste too good, IMO], and is incredibly smooth- in fact, it is not actually spread onto the cake, but "draped" over it, pressed and cut to fit.
I'm posting some pictures so you can see fondant in action.
Lollies!

Wedding Cake of King Edward VII and Princess Alexandra of Great Britain (1863)

Isn't it beautiful!!! Its so ornate and detailed. That little opening of the door (so cute!!). The sideview of a lady in the center (in an oval) is actually the face of Princess Alexandra. Her first pic sent to England from Denmark (seen by Edward) was a side view just like that.

Wow, love that pic. I don't think I've ever seen very many detailed photos of older weddings they all seem to be the same. This one's a pleasant surprise.

Thank you pdas for the photo. That is a very beautiful cake. I find it sad to think of the time and effort that has gone into creating such a wonderful display, for it to only end up eaten, or shoved in people's faces.

Princess Louise (sixth child of Queen Victoria) and John Campbell 'Lorne', Marquis of Lorne, 1871

The cake was made by Queen Victoria's chief confectioner at Windsor Castle, it measured 5 feet, 4 inches high with a diameter of 2 feet, 6 inches. The base was decorated with white satin, bearing coats of arms, the initials, "L.L" entwined with blue, wreaths of orange-blossom and small vases containing the same flowers. All the figures and ornaments were of sugar.
