"My husband surprised me with a dozen roses on our anniversary."
Explanation: the pronouns "me" and "our" clearly refer to the speaker and the couple (speaker + husband). The other sentences contain pronoun-antecedent problems (e.g., "their sides" should refer to the cake not daisies, "it" should be "them" for flowers, and the pronouns in the lilac sentence are ambiguous/mismatched).
