It may, eventually, but it would take a very long time. In western Canada it's traditional for the top layer of a wedding cake (the Bride's cake) to be fruitcake, and to be saved for consumption on the 25th Anniversary.
ahhh. i was curious, partially, because we have a christmas cake (a fruitcake with marzipan and icing, delicious when fresh :) ) purchased in the UK last year still on our shelf.
unfortunately, i don't think we wrapped it tightly enough and it has likely solidified into a brick.
we keep it primarily for scientific purposes at this point. :)
