Chocolate Sprinkles
Sweet and mildly chocolatey, with a light crunch that contrasts with a soft dessert underneath.
Lens analyzedChocolate sprinkles are small chocolate-flavored decorative pieces, usually rod-shaped or in tiny nonpareil dots, scattered over ice cream, cupcakes, and other desserts as a finishing touch. They're a decoration rather than a core ingredient, added after a dish is otherwise finished.
Where it comes from
Sprinkles date back to European candy-making traditions, and the chocolate-flavored version became a common dessert topping alongside the classic rainbow variety as chocolate confectionery spread through North American grocery aisles.
Buying it
Check the ingredient label if you want an actual cocoa-based sprinkle rather than one that's simply colored to look like chocolate, since formulations vary by brand.
Storing it
Keep the container tightly sealed in a cool, dry pantry; sprinkles can clump or lose their crisp snap if they're exposed to humidity.
Keeps about 1 year in the pantry.
