Sprinkles are a staple decoration in confectionery and bakery production.

From colourful sugar strands to chocolate-coated inclusions, they add both visual appeal and texture to finished products.

For manufacturers, the challenge lies in producing sprinkles consistently at scale, with tight control over colour, size, and surface finish.

At Premier Forrester, we help you design and integrate sprinkle production lines that work reliably for your business.

Sprinkle production process

Sprinkle production usually begins with a base mixture such as sugar, starch, or chocolate compound. This is formed into uniform strands or pellets, then cut to size.

Coating and colouring steps follow, often using belt sprinkling or panning techniques to achieve the desired finish.

Finally, drying and cooling stabilise the product before packaging.

Sprinkles can be made as standalone products or produced as part of wider chocolate or bakery operations.

  • Blockers and bottlenecks: Irregular cutting or poor moisture control can lead to uneven product quality or clumping.
  • Product variations: Different colours, sizes, and bases (sugar, chocolate, or compound) may require changes in coating and drying conditions.
  • Batch size: Small batches offer flexibility but raise costs, while large runs demand robust systems to keep quality consistent.
