Where to use sprinkles

 Sprinkles aren’t just for kids’ cupcakes—they’re edible confetti that can turn almost anything into a celebration! Here are the best places to use them:


🍰 On Cakes

  • Birthday cakes: Classic on frosted buttercream or whipped cream.

  • Funfetti cakes: Mix them into the batter for colorful specks inside.

  • Drip cakes: Add sprinkles around the top edge for a pop of color.


🧁 Cupcakes & Muffins

  • Frost, then dunk in sprinkles for that bakery look.

  • Add to cream cheese or whipped frosting for extra crunch.


🍪 Cookies

  • Roll cookie dough balls in sprinkles before baking.

  • Add to sugar cookie or shortbread dough for rainbow bits.


🍨 Ice Cream & Frozen Treats

  • Sprinkle over sundaes, milkshakes, or ice cream cones.

  • Rim your milkshake glass with frosting + sprinkles for an Instagram moment.


🥤 Drinks & Cocktails

  • Dip glass rims in melted chocolate or syrup, then coat with sprinkles.

  • Use for hot chocolate toppings with whipped cream.


🍩 Donuts & Pastries

  • Glaze donuts and shower them with sprinkles for the classic look.


🎉 Party Treats

  • On cake pops, chocolate-covered strawberries, rice krispie treats.

  • Inside a piñata cake or surprise center for a fun reveal.


💡 Pro Tip: If baking sprinkles into batter (like cookies or cakes), use jimmies (long, soft sprinkles) instead of nonpareils (tiny balls) because nonpareils bleed color.
