'Wow friends and family with this exceptional, handcrafted, chocolate gift box'
Our bonbonnières are always a show-stopping gift
Our bonbonnières are inspired by a centuries-old European tradition, where hosts would present guests with beautifully crafted keepsake boxes filled with delicate sugar confections — a gesture symbolising celebration, generosity and good fortune.
Traditionally given at special occasions such as weddings, christenings and birthdays, these elegant boxes were designed to leave a lasting impression. Today, Rita Farhi bonbonnières continue this legacy, each one crafted from papier mâché and hand-painted, creating a truly unique and decorative gift.
Inside, discover an indulgent selection centred around dark chocolate coated ginger. Tender pieces of crystallised stem ginger are enrobed in smooth, premium dark chocolate, creating a beautifully balanced contrast between warming spice and deep cocoa richness.
This harmonious combination delivers a refined and distinctive flavour experience — perfectly balanced, gently warming, and irresistibly indulgent, beautifully presented for gifting.

What makes the dark chocolate ginger bonbonnière a standout gift?
This gift combines two things that are each extraordinary in their own right: a bold and sophisticated dark chocolate ginger confection, and an exquisite large handmade bonbonnière crafted from papier-mâché and hand-painted in Kashmir. The dark chocolate contains a minimum of 64% cocoa solids, and the ginger at 38% of each piece delivers a warming, fiery spice that cuts beautifully through the deep cocoa richness. The combination of a genuinely distinctive confection inside a truly unique keepsake box makes this one of the most memorable gifts Farhi offers.
What is the history behind Farhi's bonbonnières?
Farhi's bonbonnières are rooted in a centuries-old European tradition in which hosts at weddings, christenings and birthdays would offer guests beautifully crafted boxes — historically made from porcelain, crystal or silver — containing delicate sugar confections as a symbol of good fortune. Rita Farhi revives this tradition with handmade papier-mâché bonbonnières, each individually painted by artisans, making every piece entirely unique. Images shown are for illustrative purposes only, as no two bonbonnières are identical.

Yes, this selection is suitable for vegetarians and is made entirely without palm oil.
