Steps:
- Combine sugar, 2 tablespoons water, corn syrup, and vanilla in a small bowl. Stir until mixture has consistency of glue, adding more water if necessary, 1/4 teaspoon at a time. Divide into 3 small bowls; tint with food coloring as desired.
- Transfer lightest-colored mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a small pastry tip (such as Ateco #2). Pipe long, thin lines onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Fill pastry bag with medium-colored mixture; repeat piping. Fill pastry bag with darkest-colored mixture; repeat piping. Let stand, uncovered, until very firm, at least overnight. Once lines are dry, break enough into small pieces for 1/3 cup; keep remaining sprinkles long for garnish.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg white and water until frothy with an electric mixer, about 20 seconds. Then slowly beat in the powdered sugar until smooth.
- Stir in the almond extract and a few drops of food coloring.
- Line 3 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Transfer the confectioners' sugar mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a #4 pastry tip. Pipe the batter out into lines to cover all three sheets. Do not let the lines touch one another.
- Let the sheets stand at room temperature, uncovered, until the lines are completely dry, about 12 hours.
- Using the tip of a sharp paring knife, pick the lines off the parchment paper. The pieces will break off into long and short pieces. Once you've loosened the lines from the entire sheet, carefully break the sprinkles down even further with your fingers. Use immediately or store in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks.

Tips:
- Choose the right sprinkles: Different sprinkles have different melting points, so it's important to choose the right type for your project. Nonpareils and jimmies are good choices for beginners, as they are less likely to melt.
- Prepare your workstation: Cover your work surface with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to make cleanup easier.
- Use a piping bag or squeeze bottle: This will give you more control over the shape and size of your sprinkles.
- Work quickly: The sprinkles will start to set quickly, so work quickly to get them into the desired shape.
- Be patient: It takes time to make homemade sprinkles, but the results are worth it!
Conclusion:
Making homemade sprinkles is a fun and easy way to add a personal touch to your baked goods. With a little creativity, you can create sprinkles in any color, shape, or size. So next time you're looking for a way to dress up your desserts, give homemade sprinkles a try!
