This is an extremely easy coffee break puzzle, so it should be fun way to spend a few minutes.
Ordinary sudoku rules apply. In addition, there are a few cages which once filled can be decoded. Take the two numbers in the cage and subtract 26 as many times as you can (take the caged number modulo 26). The result represents that letter of the english alphabet. Take for example the number 91. If we subtract 26 from this we get 65, then 39, and finally 13. The thirteenth letter of the english alphabet is m. Finding the (English) decoded message is necessary to solve the puzzle. Note: If you don't feel like converting numbers to letters, use this online tool.
Here is the puzzle. Enjoy! :)
Lösungscode: Column 1 followed by row 9

The idea with the message is amazing. It is indeed impossible to solve without it.
@XoZu Thank you! I have another of these coming soon (:

I don't like Sudokus very much and usually prefer any other puzzle type... But I really liked the idea of a hidden message and gave it a try... And yes, I really liked the way the message was used, great idea and I got a sort of a "puzzle hunt feeling" ... Thanks!

Well I don’t understand why people left a low score. This is a top one-star puzzle.
@Narayana Thank you for your kind words as always <3 I don't take the ratings very seriously. I knew this wouldn't go over well, but I wanted to make a puzzle easy enough for my friends. I was genuinely disappointed to not get that record though! Different people look for different things in a puzzle and I've found lots of very low rated puzzles to be absolutely brilliant. One of the best examples of this is probably the puzzle you posted recently

I almost set a record with this one! This was briefly the lowest rated sudoku on the website
