History Of Edible Wedding Favors
Edible wedding favors date back to the 16th century where they were traditionally given as celebration gifts in Europe. Bonbonniere's, small boxes decorated with various precious material and metals such as gold, were primarily used for gift giving at special ceremonies. These were originally filled with sugar delicacies, as back then sugar was highly valued.
As time passed, people started filling bonbonniere's with various treats, one of the most popular ones being almonds. They were coated with sugar, chocolate, and other sweet flavors. Current day Jordan Almonds are living proof of this very popular tradition. Many cultures believe that giving almonds as gifts brings good luck to the wedding guests.
