Fairy cakes were whipped up by Gloucester Rugby players this week in aid of charity.
Six of them swapped the rugby pitch for the kitchen to raise funds for Comic Relief and Restart – the charity that supports ill and injured players.
Pete Buxton, Dan Robson, Koree Britton, Billy Burns, Dan Murphy, and Alex Brown were at Foodworks Cookery School in Colesbourne Park.
They put some muscle power into the challenge of baking and decorating 1,000 cupcakes.
They then raced around Cheltenham selling their wares to office staff at Capita, Zurich and GE Aviation.
Their efforts raised £1,441 which will be split evenly between Comic Relief and rugby injury Restart. The Twickenham-based charity asked nine rugby clubs to do the challenge and the Cherry and Whites lads came out on top.
Head of fundraising Liz Beatty said: "They worked really hard and were determined to win. They were the club to raise the most money."
