sprinkles

Sprinkles are very small pieces of confectionery used as a decoration or to add texture to desserts—typically cupcakes, cookies, doughnuts, ice cream, frozen yogurt, some puddings, and in the Netherlands and Australia, sandwiches or bread. The tiny candies are produced in a variety of colors and are generally used as a topping or a decorative element.
==Types==

Popular terminology for this confection tends to overlap, while manufacturers are more precise with their labeling. What consumers often call "sprinkles" covers several types of candy decorations that are ''sprinkled'' randomly over a surface, as opposed to decorations that are placed in specific spots. Nonpareils; confetti; silver, gold, and pearl dragées—not to be confused with pearl sugar (which is also sprinkled on baked goods); and ''hundreds-and-thousands'' are all used this way, along with a newer product called "sugar shapes" or "sequins". These latter come in a variety of shapes, often flavored, for holidays or themes, such as Halloween witches and pumpkins, or flowers and dinosaurs. Candy cane shapes may taste like peppermint, and gingerbread men like gingerbread cookies.
''Sanding sugar'' is a transparent crystal sugar of larger size than general-use refined white sugar. ''Crystal sugar'' tends to be clear and of much larger crystals than sanding sugar. ''Pearl sugar'' is relatively large, opaque white spheroids of sugar. Both crystal and pearl sugars are typically used for sprinkling on sweet breads, pastries, and cookies in many countries.
Some American manufacturers deem the elongated opaque sprinkles the official sprinkles. In British English, these are ''sugar strands'' or ''hundreds-and-thousands'' (the latter term alludes to their supposed uncountability). In the Northeastern United States, sprinkles are often still referred to as jimmies. "Jimmies", in this sense, are usually considered to be used as an ice cream topping, while sprinkles are for decorating baked goods, but the term can be used for both.〔(The Capital Times – August 1, 2006 )〕 The term is rarely used outside of the Northeast due to its perceived (though false) racial connotations.
The sprinkles known as ''nonpareils'' in French and American English are tiny opaque spheres that were traditionally white, but that now come in many colors. The sprinkle-type of ''dragée'' is like a large nonpareil with a metallic coating of silver, gold, copper, or bronze. The food-sprinkle dragée is now also made in a form resembling pearls.
Toppings that are more similar in consistency to another type of candy, even if used similarly to sprinkles, are usually known by a variation of that candy's name—for example, mini-chocolate chips or praline.
