them?

Just curious to know if anyone has any tips. I want to put sprinkles on the top and top half of the sides of a cake. Any good tips on not scattering them all over? I can't seem to perfect this technique icon_cry.gif

Thank you!

how about covering the part of cake that you don't want sprikled with a paper towel or piece of paper? just came to as i've just looked at my daughters school pictures that she did with glitter, and she did the same thing to get different colours in different places. hth

yeah, that's normally what I do, with a paper towel, but it seems like things always seem to sneak by...

Why don't you try using wax/parchment paper to cover the part that doesn't need it and then try it. The sprinkles should just slide down the paper.
