It has been decades since I last had any dealings with Arthur D Little but at that time the company had a R&D food laboratory. You may want to check there.

Hello,

Does anyone know of a lab that could analyze a 120-year-old slice of wedding cake for ingredients? We would of course have to factor in oxidation, etc. This is related to one of our school's founders and our museum group would like to recreate the cake - possibly for alumni socials, etc. Thank you for considering this very unusual request.
