A bonbonniere or bonbonnière (from French bonbonnière , ), less commonly spelt bonboniere or bomboniere (, singular bomboniera ), is a small decorative container used to hold sweets. It can take various forms (box, dish, or fabric pouch) and may be offered as a party favor on special occasions such as weddings, baptisms, First Communions or confirmations. Often regarded as a precursor to the bonbonniere was the drageoir, an earlier type of container used during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance primarily for dragees (sugar-coated almonds).
