Chocolate Sprinkles

Chocolate Sprinkles are small, rod-shaped chocolate confectionery pieces commonly used as a topping for ice cream, waffles and cakes; they are particularly popular in the Netherlands where they are known as hagelslag and in parts of North America as chocolate jimmies. Nutritionally they are an energy-dense treat made mostly of added sugars and fat — for example they contain about 67g of sugar per 100 g — and are typically used sparingly rather than as a staple ingredient. As a result they provide little fiber or protein but can contribute small amounts of minerals like magnesium; think of them as a decorative, sweet garnish rather than a nutrient-rich food.
