In the Collection Information Node you need to switch from Original to Relative. You also need to enable Reset Children

Also, you must have created the sprinkles in edit mode. Open the Sprinkles collection, select all of the sprinkles, right click and select Set Origin to geometry:

    $\begingroup$ You're welcome. Maybe it didn't work before because you only tried one thing at a time, resetting between tries, but you had three problems? $\endgroup$
