Wow friends and family with this exceptional, handcrafted chocolate gift box
Inspired by a centuries-old European tradition, bonbonnières were once presented by hosts as elegant keepsake boxes filled with delicate confections — a symbol of celebration, generosity and good fortune.
Traditionally gifted at weddings, christenings and birthdays, these exquisite boxes were designed to leave a lasting impression. Today, Rita Farhi bonbonnières continue this legacy. Each piece is crafted from papier mâché and hand-painted in Kashmir, India, creating a truly unique and decorative gift.
Inside, discover an indulgent selection of candied ginger pieces enrobed in rich dark chocolate. The gentle warmth and natural spice of the ginger is perfectly balanced by the deep, velvety cocoa, creating a refined and distinctive flavour experience.
Available in a range of elegant designs, these luxurious keepsake boxes are designed to be treasured long after the final indulgent bite — making them a truly memorable and thoughtful gift.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the dark chocolate and ginger combination in this bonbonnière so compelling?
The pairing of crystallised ginger and rich dark chocolate is one of the great classical flavour marriages — the warming, aromatic heat of stem ginger finds its perfect counterpart in the deep bittersweet intensity of premium cocoa. Each piece inside this handmade bonbonnière offers that captivating interplay of spice and chocolate, creating a sophisticated confection that reveals new layers of flavour with every bite. It is a choice that speaks to a discerning, adventurous palate.
Is the bonbonnière itself reusable after the chocolates have been enjoyed?
Absolutely — the handmade papier mâché bonbonnière is very much designed to be kept and treasured as a decorative object in its own right. Each one is individually hand-painted, meaning no two are precisely alike, which lends every piece a particular character and charm. Recipients often repurpose their bonbonnière as a jewellery dish, trinket keeper or desk ornament, ensuring it continues to bring joy long after the last dark chocolate ginger has been savoured.
Who would particularly appreciate receiving this bonbonnière as a gift?
This bonbonnière is a wonderful choice for anyone who loves bold, characterful flavours and appreciates the artistry of fine handcrafted objects. The dark chocolate coated crystallised ginger filling makes it especially appealing to lovers of intense, warming confections — it is a departure from the expected and feels genuinely thoughtful as a result. Available in Gold, Red, Blue and Floral finishes at £20.00, it suits celebrations of all kinds, from dinner party gifts to heartfelt personal gestures.
