Just made this using paper cups and the back of a spoon. No need for gloves. Fast, easy and saved the day since sprinkles are hard to find where I live. Thanks! UPDATE: Being a novice cook, I let my kids deco on the cookie sheet and thru it in the oven. The sugar that got spilled on the sheet burned and smoked up the kitchen. She lives and learns!!

Know why Louisianans love Lent? It's the prelude to Easter candy. Made this glitter for Eastery 'sugah cookies'.

Much cheaper than buying coloured sugar at the store! I just used a fork to mix in the colour in a small bowl and then put it on a cookie sheet lined with parchment to dry off before using them on St. Patrick's Shamrock Cookies. Turned out looking fabulous! Thanks for posting.
