Cake Messages That Are Funnier Than the Gift Card

A cake can soften the blow of almost anything. As they say, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down. There’s a reason most of us request it on our birthdays (a day when we can request anything). A cake is the perfect way to be festive, to feed dessert to a crowd, and to display a message about whatever you’re celebrating. We’re all familiar with the classic “Happy Birthday” cakes. We know about “Happy Retirement Jen” and “Congrats on the Baby, Paul.” Maybe we’ve even witnessed a “Very Merry Divorce, Lisa.” But these funny cake sayings take it a step further.

These are not your usual polite party cakes. There are some that are cheeky, a few are dramatic, and some might make you wonder who approved the message in the first place.

And honestly, that is what makes them unforgettable.
