I remember William's chocolate biscuit cake. They had the palace chefs gave the recipe for , and then contracted out for the decorations and actually make it.

No mention of a fruitcake.

"Prince William and his bride, Kate Middleton, had two wedding cakes -- one very traditional, and the other a bit unusual. The couple asked local baker Fiona Cairns to create the main royal wedding cake, which -- as is customary in the United Kingdom -- was crafted in fruitcake."
But just because William and Catherine had a English fruitcake doesn't mean that is the only acceptable wedding cake.
