As a food and nutrition expert, I can tell you that the term "sprinkle" is quite broad and can refer to a variety of toppings or decorations used in the culinary world. Whether or not sprinkles are vegan depends on their specific ingredients.

Many traditional sprinkles, also known as "jimmies" or "sugar sprinkles," are made from sugar, dextrose, corn syrup, and various food colorings. Some of these ingredients, particularly if they include gelatin, which is derived from animal collagen, would not be considered vegan. However, there are vegan-friendly alternatives available that use plant-based ingredients for coloring and do not include any animal-derived substances.
