Description

Make your celebration extra festive with this easy and fun Sprinkle Cake! Whether you’re covering up frosting flaws or simply want a colorful finish, sprinkles are the perfect way to decorate any cake effortlessly.


Ingredients

  • 1 cake (homemade or store-bought, any flavor)

  • Frosting (homemade or store-bought, enough to coat the cake)

  • A generous amount of sprinkles (choose your favorite types or colors)


Instructions

  1. Bake and Cool the Cake: If making from scratch, follow your chosen recipe and allow the cake to cool completely before decorating.

  2. Level the Cake (Optional): Use a knife to trim any domed top for a flat, even surface.

  3. Frost the Cake: Spread frosting evenly over the top and sides. It doesn’t have to be perfect—sprinkles will do the magic!

  4. Apply Sprinkles: Take sprinkles in your hand and gently press them onto the sides of the cake. Pour or place with fingers as needed.

  5. Decorate the Top: Sprinkle over the top, either covering it completely or adding a light dusting.

  6. Serve and Enjoy: Slice and enjoy your fun, festive creation!

Notes

  • Best to decorate the cake over a tray or parchment paper to catch stray sprinkles.

  • Use gloves if you prefer not to get sticky hands during sprinkle application.

  • Refrigerate if not serving right away, especially in warmer temperatures.
