Message in a... cupcake...

November 4, 2014 9:25 AM

My guy's birthday is coming up. I'd like to write a cute message on mini-cupcakes (1 letter per cupcake) but I'm having trouble coming up with the message.

In previous years, the most popular cake was the one that said (uncensored) "Happy Birthday F**kface". He's a professional standup comic and writer, loves Louis CK and Patton Oswalt, and would have an answer for this in ten seconds. But I can't ask him! The best thing in life is when I can make him laugh. So hit me with your best brief funny messages. Constraints: 24-36 letters please.

Best answer: If a sweary cake has done it in the past, can I suggest the message which appeared on a cake someone made for me a few years back:

HAPPY C*NTING BIRTHDAY

There was no censoring on the cake.
