There’s something magical about the holidays, food included! One of the easiest ways to give just about any sweet dish a festive spin? One simple ingredient that you can buy at the store or online: sprinkles!

There’s nothing wrong with traditional red and green sprinkles, but there are also a ton of fun alternatives like sparkly crystals and ones that add a touch of flavor. And, while the obvious choices may be baking them into desserts (cookies, brownies, doughnuts and cakes) I’m here to tell you that there are lots of other ways to use your sprinkles, too. How about waking up to a plate of waffles or pancakes with a colorful array of cheerful Christmas sprinkles baked right in? Or, why not sprinkle a few over your holiday-themed snack board for an extra bit of festive fun? Feeling fancy? You can even use sprinkles to decorate the rim of your coffee mug, milk cup or cocktail glass.

So, whether you’re sipping eggnog or noshing on some homemade pastries, you’re going to need some of these sprinkles!
