Get your ovens fired up and your mitts at the ready!

On Monday 30 August keen cooks across the country will be baking batch upon batch of yummy cupcakes to sell at their work, at school or to friends and all in support of the SPCA.

Once every last crumb has been devoured and mixing bowls thoroughly licked clean, all proceeds from cupcake sales go directly to your local SPCA.

2009 was the first-ever SPCA Cupcake Day and a massive $133,755.31 was raised for SPCA branches across NZ – with sales in Wellington raising over $20,000 alone.

Bake ‘em or eat ‘em – how can you resist?!

To get involved and support Wellington SPCA, all you need to do is register to become a cupcake cook here. Registration is free and the last day for registrations is Friday 20 August.
