Over The Top Let It Snow Non-Pareils
What it is
These tiny, spherical sprinkles are a classic baking decoration. They are made from sugar and starch, creating a delicate crunch and a sweet flavor. Their small size makes them ideal for covering baked goods evenly, providing a festive and visually appealing finish. They are often used to mimic snow or for general decorative purposes on cakes, cookies, and cupcakes.
How people cook with it
These non-pareils are perfect for adding a touch of sparkle and texture to your baked creations.
- Decorating cookies
- Topping cupcakes
- Adding to frosting
- Creating a snowy effect
After frosting your baked goods, gently sprinkle the non-pareils over the wet icing. They will adhere easily, creating a uniform and delightful appearance. For a more concentrated effect, you can press them lightly into thicker frosting. They are also excellent for coating the edges of cakes or creating patterns. Their small size allows for intricate designs and a delicate finish that complements any sweet treat.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to larger sprinkles, non-pareils offer a finer texture and a more subtle sweetness. Their spherical shape provides a different mouthfeel than jimmies or confetti sprinkles. They are less likely to chip or break off during handling, ensuring a consistent look on your finished products.
Who it is for
Bakers of all skill levels enjoy using these for their simple yet effective decorative qualities.
How to keep the rest
Store the remaining non-pareils in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent clumping and maintain their freshness and texture for future baking projects.
