Making Sugar sprinkles at home is quite an easy task,also it is much cheaper than buying from stores.I had colored sugar sprinkles which hubby bought from US.Actually I asked him for the colored semiya sprinkles and as it was in the pack of 6 he bought the entire pack and I had green and red sugar sprinkles in that pack which I used for my sugar cookies(recipe coming soon).I wanted to try and post homemade sugar sprinkles so that it will useful to many of you.So I tried in a very small batch, now lets get on to learn how to make sugar sprinkles at home.

My Notes:

  • Use liquid or gel food colors.
  • If you have food color powders then a drop of water in the food color then add it to sugar.
  • Baking ensure drying up and also gives a glitter to the sugar so I recommend baking.
  • But those who do not own a oven , well you can just mix the food colors dry it well atleast for a day then store.Do not dry up in sun, the colors may fade, just dry it up in a shaded place.
