Frequently Asked Questions About Chocolate cake with rainbow sprinkles
How do you make chocolate cake with rainbow sprinkles?
Chocolate cake with rainbow sprinkles is made by baking a cocoa cake and adding sprinkles on top or folding some into the batter. For brighter decoration, frost the completely cooled cake first, then scatter the sprinkles over the frosting.
What are the rainbow sprinkles on chocolate cake called?
The small rod-shaped decorations on chocolate cake are often called sprinkles or jimmies. Their bright colors come from food coloring, and their texture and ingredients vary by type; nonpareils are the tiny round kind.
Do rainbow sprinkles melt in chocolate cake?

Why do sprinkles sink in chocolate cake?

What is the difference between chocolate cake with rainbow sprinkles and Funfetti cake?
