The popular terminology for this confection tends to overlap, while producers are more precise with their labels. What consumers often call "sprinkles" includes some types of candy decorations that are randomly above the surface, compared to decorations placed in certain places. Nonpareils, confetti, silver, gold, and pearl dragÃÆ' à © es - not to be confused with pearl sugar (which is also sprinkled on baked goods) - and hundreds- and-thousands are all used in this way, together with a new product called "sugar shape" or "sequin". The latter comes in various forms, often embellished, for holidays or themes, such as Halloween witches and pumpkins, or flowers and dinosaurs. The form of candy cane may taste like candy, and men like gingerbread gingerbread.
Sanding sugar is a transparent crystal sugar larger than ordinary white sugar. Crystal Sugar tends to be clear and has a much larger crystal than sugar sanding. Pearl sugar is a relatively large and opaque white spherid of sugar. Crystal and pearl sugar is usually used for sprinkling on sweet breads, pastries, and pastries in many countries.
Some American manufacturers consider opaque blends sprinkle the official sprinkling. In English English, this is sugar string or hundreds- and-thousands (the last term touched on things that should not be counted). In the Northeastern United States, sprinkling is often referred to as jimmies. "Jimmies", in this sense, are usually considered to be used as ice cream toppings, while sprinkling to decorate baked goods, but the term can be used for both.
Distribution known as nonpareils in French and American English is a small blur that is traditionally white, but it is now in many colors. Sprinkle-type dragÃÆ'à © e is like a large nonpareil with a layer of silver, gold, copper, or bronze. Food-dripping dragons are now made in the form of pearls.
Toppings that have a consistency similar to other types of candy, even if used similarly to sprinkles, are usually known by variations of the candy name - for example, mini chocolate or praline chips.

History
Nonpareils date back at least to the end of the 18th century, if not earlier. They are used as decoration for piÃÆ'èces montà © es and desserts.
The candy company, Just Born, quotes its founder, Sam Born, who created a "chocolate" sprinkling called "jimmies" (which may never contain chocolate as found later) in Brooklyn, New York, USA.
Dutch
Sanding sugar has been commercially available in various small colors for decades. Now comes in a wide range, including "glitter" black and metallic.
Name
Jimmies is the most popular term for sprinkling in the Philadelphia and Boston areas. The origin of the name "jimmies" was first documented in 1930, as a topping for the cake.
Although the Candy Just Born Company in Bethlehem, PA claims to have created jimmies and named them as employees, this is impossible. The rumor that the name somehow refers to Jim Crow may also be wrong.
Another story links the name "jimmies" with Dr. Sidney Farber and Edward Brigham. Dr. Farber founded the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts, as well as a charity named after one of his pediatric patients, The Jimmy Fund. Edward Brigham opened an ice-cream restaurant called Brigham's and charged an extra penny for a sprinkling of chocolate on a cone, which benefited The Jimmy Fund. But the funding began in 1948, after the first historical reference.
Usage
Sprinkles generally require frosting, ice cream, or some other sticky stuff to stick to the desired food surface. They can be most commonly found in smaller confections such as cupcakes or frozen sugar cookies, as they usually have more frosting and a smaller diameter than the cake.
In the Netherlands, chocolade hagelslag (chocolate sprinkling) is used as a sandwich topping (similar to muisjes and vlokken); this is also common in Belgium, Suriname, and Indonesia, once a Dutch colony. These countries also use vruchtenhagel and anijshagel (made from sugar and fruit/aniseed) on sandwiches (especially at breakfast). In Indonesia, commonly known as meses or meises , probably derived from the Dutch word muisjes . In Belgium it is often called muizenstrontjes (mouse droppings) because of their resemblance to mouse droppings.
Fairy bread is the name given to children treating sprinkles or nonpareils on white bread butter. Fairy bread is commonly served at children's parties in Australia and New Zealand.
Desserts called confetti cake have sprinkles mixed with dough, where they slowly dissolve and form tiny colored spots, giving the appearance of confetti. Confetti cakes are popular for children's birthdays in the United States. The Pillsbury Company sells its own variations known as "Funfetti" cakes, combining substances such as sprinkles into the mix.
