Funfetti
Funfetti is a term used to describe a type of baking product that includes multi-colored sprinkles in the mix to create a colorful, festive result. The term is most commonly associated with cakes, cupcakes, and cookies, but can also be used to describe any baked good that includes colorful sprinkles in the mix.
History[edit | edit source]
The term "Funfetti" was first trademarked by the Pillsbury Company in 1989, in conjunction with the release of their Funfetti cake mix. The product was an instant success, and the term has since become a genericized trademark used to describe any baked good that includes multi-colored sprinkles in the mix.
Usage[edit | edit source]
Funfetti is often used in celebration cakes, such as birthday cakes or wedding cakes, due to its festive appearance. The sprinkles in the mix melt during the baking process, creating a colorful, speckled effect throughout the finished product.
In addition to cakes, Funfetti can also be used in other baked goods such as cookies, cupcakes, and pancakes. Some recipes even incorporate Funfetti into savory dishes, such as macaroni and cheese or pizza dough, for a fun and unexpected twist.
Popularity[edit | edit source]
Funfetti's popularity has grown significantly since its introduction in the late 1980s. Today, it is a staple in many home bakers' pantries, and is often used in baking for special occasions. Its popularity has also led to the creation of numerous Funfetti-inspired recipes, from Funfetti ice cream to Funfetti popcorn.
