When does a cupcake power a car? When it is the start of an SPCA fundraiser.
The annual SPCA Cupcake Day took place yesterday with several hundred cupcakes baked and sold in Rotorua.
The Rotorua SPCA branch decided to use the day to kick-start its fund for a new vehicle.
"Our current vehicle isn't that reliable," said SPCA inspector Jessica Watson.
"It's done its dash and it would be great to get something new. I'm out there every day, I drive 1000km a week following up animal cruelty complaints and educating people on what they need to do.
