Holiday Baking with Natural Sprinkles

by Katie Wallace | Updated: November 14, 2025

One of my favorite things about the holidays is baking with my kids. We love decorating Christmas cookies, dipping chocolate truffles, and making cinnamon rolls for Christmas morning. I also enjoy the challenge of homemade macarons because they’re a sweet reward when they turn out beautifully. Decorating our treats is always the most fun, and this year we’re using Supernatural Sprinkles. These colorful and festive natural sprinkles make the holidays a little more sweet!

These natural sprinkles for baking are completely free of artificial dyes, soy, palm oil, and GMOs, which makes them a healthier alternative to traditional sprinkles. These “hundreds and thousands” come in creative blends with whimsical names like Great Big Blizzard, Into The Woods, and Ugly Christmas Sweater. Each natural sprinkle mix has a fun variety of shapes and colors that instantly brighten cookies, cakes, and holiday goodies.

Natural Sprinkles for Baking

When I opened my holiday collection from Supernatural Sprinkles, my girls and I couldn’t wait to try them. I sprinkled a few on a batch of homemade macarons, and they added the perfect festive touch. These natural sprinkles have a light sweetness and a faint veggie-based aroma from the natural dyes, which I don’t mind. They’re playful, vibrant, and an easy way to make holiday baking feel special.

I can’t wait to use these natural sprinkles for baking on our upcoming batches of cookies, bars, and birthday treats. A dash of Into The Woods adds just the right pop of color to vanilla cream macarons, and I love how each blend gives homemade desserts a dreamy, whimsical look.

Holiday baking is one of the ways our family brings joy to the season. My kids help mix the dough and decorate cookies with colorful sprinkles before we deliver plates of treats to neighbors and friends. Good food has a way of bringing people together, and these Supernatural Sprinkles make the experience even more fun.

Giftable Treats

Holiday treats are one of my favorite ways to bring a little joy into the season. I usually make several different goodies for Christmas. My kids love jumping in to help mix cookie dough and decorate with sprinkles. In addition to decorating, these Supernatural Sprinkles sets are perfect gifts for anyone who loves to create edible art in the kitchen.

For me, baking is a special way to create holiday memories and share homemade treats with my family. I love experimenting with color, flavor, and simple designs when I decorate cookies. I started making macarons one snowy winter when we were stuck at home, and after a few batches I figured out the technique. Once you learn the basics, you can make perfect homemade macarons in any color or flavor you’d like. Add natural sprinkles for a festive touch! These macarons look especially pretty with a pop of bright, food-based color on top.

Love to make giftable treats? I’d love to hear what your family enjoys baking during the holidays!

๐Ÿ’ก Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids! ๐Ÿ’ก Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids!

๐Ÿงณ Pack light with items that do more

We bring clothes that mix and match, quick-dry layers, fold-flat totes, and activities that encourage creativity. Think art supplies and travel board games. The less we carry, the more we can explore.

๐Ÿฅช Eat often and try new flavors
We use snack stops and meals to experience local culture. Bakeries, fruit stands, and small cafรฉs become our favorite spots. 

๐Ÿž๏ธ Choose simple adventures over packed days
We go on kid-friendly hikes, stop at playgrounds, and tour cultural centers. We visit great houses, historic workhouses, and local museums.

๐Ÿ“ฑ Use screens sparingly
Ideally our kids only use screens on travel days, and with a time limit. Shows and multi-player games can help turn dull afternoons into family fun!

๐Ÿ”ฆ Encourage curiosity
We explore as much as we can with our four kids, shopping at markets, using public transportation, and visiting immersive attractions. We find many free activities, and budget for must-see destinations.

We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easte We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easter weekend. โ›ฒ๏ธโœจ Even though the streets of Rome were packed, this site had crowd control security, who only let a few people down in front of the fountain at a time.

We stood in line for 10 minutes, and were given unrushed time to take photos and video clips in front of this iconic landmark. ๐Ÿ“ธ We have no idea whether this is normal, but it was such a special highlight in Rome!

๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐ŸŒ‰ Destination Highlight: Tower Bridge, London! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Tower Bridge ended up being such a memorable stop! The walkways offer amazing views of the River Thames and the city skyline.

โœจ Fun facts:

Tower Bridge opened in 1894 after eight years of construction.

Itโ€™s a bascule bridge, meaning the roadway lifts up for tall ships to pass through.

The glass floor walkways were added in 2014, giving visitors a thrilling (and slightly scary!) perspective from 138 feet above the Thames.

Our kids loved learning how the bridge lifts up using giant counterweights, and we all left with a new appreciation for Londonโ€™s engineering and history. ๐Ÿ’™

Would you be brave enough to walk across the glass floor? ๐Ÿ˜„
