About Candy sprinkles
Candy sprinkles, also known as jimmies or hundreds and thousands, are brightly colored, small confections used to decorate desserts like cakes, cookies, and ice cream. Originating in Europe, these tiny treats come in various shapes, such as rods, spheres, and stars, and are typically made from sugar, cornstarch, food coloring, and edible wax. While candy sprinkles add visual appeal and a fun textural element to foods, they are primarily composed of sugar and artificial additives, offering little nutritional value. Their vibrant colors stem from food dyes, some of which have raised concerns about potential health impacts in sensitive individuals. Candy sprinkles are best enjoyed in moderation, as their high sugar content and lack of essential nutrients make them more of a decorative indulgence rather than a healthy choice. They are free from fat and cholesterol, but their nutritional profile is minimal. Perfect for adding cheer, sprinkles stay firmly in the treat category.
