Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • few drops gel or liquid food colors I used green, red and yellow

Instructions

  • Measure sugar and keep it ready.
  • Now divide the sugar into 3 zip lock bags.
  • Choose your food colors.
  • Pour 3-4 drops of red, yellow and green food colors in each separate zip lock bags.
  • Now shake each bag well. Shake it well so that the colors are evenly distributed, shake and keep mixing until the colors are evenly mixed.
  • Preheat oven at 100 deg C for 10mins.
  • In a baking tray lay 3 small aluminum foils, transfer the sugar mixture to the foil.
  • Spread it with a fork so that it forms a thin layer.
  • Bake at 100 deg C in preheated oven for 5-7 mins.
  • Allow it cool down for 15mins.
  • Your homemade sugar sprinkles are ready. It will look slightly moist but after cooling down it becomes dry. Cool down completely then store.
  • Store Colour Sprinkles in a clean airtight box. No need to refrigerate but if you want to have a longer shelf life then refrigerate it.

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 at least for a day then store. Do not dry up in sun, the colors may fade, just dry it up in a shaded place.
