Fun alternatives to Birthday Cake?

Ok Monday is my DH's birthday. HE HATES CAKE. Every year I bake him a cake, he blows out the candle and eats one bite for "good luck" and that's it.

Any fun alternatives to birthday cake that I can stick a candle in?

Make him a birthday Melon filled with Vodka. Get a giant Candle and wedge it in the hole that you made to pour the booze in. Then when he pulls it out, use it as a spigot.

Does he like any sweets? Birthday brownies? Birthday rice pudding? Maybe you can make a giant (I mean GIANT - as in Friendly's Crowd Pleaser) Ice cream sundae?

whatever he likes, make that.

DH likes pie, any kind with fruit.

Also, I let him pick 2 flavors of ice cream and cookies and make him a homemade ice cream cake. Very simple to do actually.

What about just a simple ice cream cake? You can choose the flavors at Baskin Robbins.
