Once you have your datum curve on the surface, create an Area Offset feature:Insert > Advanced > Area Offset > Sket Region > SideNrmToSkt). Use a make datum for the sketching plane tangent to the cylinder at the location of the text. In sketcher, Use Edge > Loop, and select the existing datum curve text that you had before. Enter a postive offset for protrusions, negative offset for a cut.
This works best with minimum text. If you have a lot of text, sketcher can take a long time to regenerate because you have a lot of little skeched entities.
