Where can I find these giant round cookie sprinkle things?

[mariadnoca]

I have this cookie cutter. Mind you it makes a HUGE bigger than my hand cookie. At local cake decorating shops/Sur la Table/Micheal's etc the largest I could find/used really were waaay too small.

So assume I need to look online...any ideas?

Have you looked at Michael's or Hobby Lobby or AC Moore. Here's a page

There is a candy that are little balls like that, I just can't remember

what the candy is called. Take a look in the candy department.

I rememer that the silver ones were called Dragees.

dI don't recall seeing the colored ones anywhere.

Can you use mini M&Ms or skittles?

 

[mariadnoca]

I just found out the silver ones are now outlawed in CA *sob*

Or if you need smaller / check out "Nerds"... Although they are usually in only one color.

There are also mini gob stoppers, but while they would look pretty, they would be a problem on a

cookie

Can you tell that our children see our dentist often!!! : )

 

[charley]

Doesn't mean you can't order them. nt

 

[charley]

I posted a link to places you could order the colored ones. Google "colored dragees".

These look similar: Rainbow sugar pearl sprinkles

[mariadnoca]

Yes it does...places I saw say they don't ship these to CA

 

[mariadnoca]

The problem is the size. I've found them, but not in a big enough size.

 

[pat-nocal]

Spun Sugar, in Berkeley, might have them. Or know where you can find them. They're closed now

or I'd call for ya. They're a small store but they have a lot of unique and harder to find baking and decorating goodies.

OR, have you thought about piping the beads on? I know it might

seem like a lot of work but probably about the same amount of time as tweezering those little suckers on in a straight line. Just sayin'.

 

[mariadnoca]

Yeah, I have. It's just all the colors needed...and my arthritic hands

Last time I made these my hands were pretty wiped out from the piping. Though if I can find some small squeeze bottles that might work.

This whole project may be moot anyway. Christmas may be cancelled. Just got word my BIL's cancer has taken a turn for the worse. (Randy's FIL) Going to see him on Saturday.

 

[pat-nocal]

Sorry to hear, Maria.

Should you decide to go through with the cookies, SurLaTable has small and easy to squeeze bottles which are perfect to work with and you can just cut off the tip to the desired size you wish to pipe.

 

[mariadnoca]

Thanks, good to know because I've been wanting the bottles anyway.
