Chocolate sprinkles are tiny rod-shaped confectionery pieces used primarily for decorating and finishing desserts. Depending on the brand, they may be made from true chocolate with cocoa butter or from compound coatings using vegetable fats, sugar, cocoa powder, and emulsifiers, resulting in a mildly chocolatey, sweet crunch.

They are widely used to add texture, visual appeal, and a hint of cocoa flavor to baked goods and frozen desserts. Because colors can bleed and coatings can melt, they are most often applied after baking or just before serving rather than mixed into wet batters.
