Nonpareils are small, round candy sprinkles often used for decorating desserts. They come in various colors, typically white, but can also be found in vibrant shades. Made from sugar and starch, nonpareils add a crunchy texture and a sweet flavor to baked goods like cookies, cakes, and cupcakes. These sprinkles are popular in many cultures and are often used during celebrations and holidays. They can be found in baking aisles of grocery stores and are a favorite among both professional bakers and home cooks. Nonpareils are also commonly used to enhance the visual appeal of treats like ice cream and chocolate-covered snacks.
