You could add an additional level of fun to this (but only if you're the kind of person who thinks it's fun to have your friends bite down into something hard in their solar baked pudding cake).

In medieval England, tokens, such as coins and thimbles, were baked inside the birthday cake, a tradition which persists today with the Christmas pudding. Receiving a coin in one's slice predicted future wealth while it was believed that those receiving a thimble would never wed.
