Italian Style

Racchetti

Traditional, but unusual favour style, with almonds being used to form 'buds' of a flower - symbolising love that is due to blossom, as you move into your new life together.


Due to the nature of this design, only traditional almond filling is used - although several different colours can be sourced (favours supplied with white as standard).


Again, the possibilities of this design are endless, with many different types and colours of flowers being available - please ask, and we will be able to tailor make to your specific requirements.

(Photos & Prices, coming soon)!

Bombonniere

In their earliest forms, these were made of gold, precious stones, crystal or porcelain - with even the contents of considerable value, due to sugar being a prized and costly delicacy.


Centuries later, with confectionery costs reducing and the mass-production of sugar almonds - such 'little luxuries' were no longer for members of the Aristocracy.


Styles of bombonniere very much depend on the individual, in how many layers of tulle are required, flowers used etc., etc.....as do prices. Please contact us with your requirements to receive a quotation for such items - we are always happy to help!

 

Bombonniere made from white crystal tulle and raspberry edged tulle - finished with miniature paper tea roses & pearls.

Prices vary - please ask for details.
