What do I do with the leftover cake?

In short

Cover the cut face with cling film so the sponge does not dry out, and keep it refrigerated. It will hold well for another couple of days.

If you want to share it out among the guests, ask the venue for small boxes or covered plates. It is a detail people appreciate, and it stops the cake ending up in the bin.

One idea that works beautifully: modelled fondant figures can be kept dry, out of the fridge and away from damp. Plenty of people keep the figure from a first birthday for years.
