What is it about these colorful, little sugar candy toppings that makes them a long-cherished decoration? We’ve seen people gazing through the glass bakery case, pointing at the multicolored sprinkled cookies with a smiles on their faces. Even if you’re smiling on the inside, that still counts!

Fun fact #1: Nonpareils are the little round, rainbow candy decorations and are best for toppings, as their color tends to rub off in dough. Ironically, every bakery we’ve ever been to have rainbow sprinkled cookies. Whether it’s a sugar cookie, or a chocolate cookie with sprinkles, they always have them. We know they speak to the child inside all of us, as they appeal to all ages alike. You’ll also find cupcakes covered in them too.

Fun fact #2: Jimmies are the longer, candy rods in either all chocolate or rainbow colored. These are best for baking as they won’t melt. Not only can you find Jimmies at bakeries, but at ice cream parlors, frozen yougart stores and donut shops.

Fun fact #3: All sorts of sprinkles are called, hundreds and thousands, in England!

It’s endearing to see how something so small can add so much happiness.

We have discovered some of the most incredible deep fried bits of dough, with the exception of the famous Krispy Kreme, of course. If only for smell-o-vision!

These perfect gourmet doughnuts are all the rage with their perfect exterior crunch and tender moist cake inside. With too many elegany flavors to mention, we’re highlighting the top twelve for this week. They also use an organic, sustainable palm oil that gives the outside “crust” that unique texture.

We’ve tried the Butter and Salt, the gluten free Chocolate and the Old Fashion, not featured here. They delighted our tastebuds and elevated our outlook on a cleaner dessert. Although they are as delicious as they come, one cannot live on sweets alone. They are a treat every six months or so, talk about willpower!

So if you happen to be anywhere near a Sidecar doughnut location, give them a try, you won’t be dissapointed. We never are, unless regret sets in for not getting a few more of each!

Note: Call ahead to see what flavors are left for the day, they do tend to sell out.
