Ever since I was a kid I was in my Grandmother China Cabinet admire their jewelry collection stared remember. When I was growing up, I learned that there are toys to play with me, but small gifts from different events, which we celebrated in my family. Grandma finally explained the tradition behind the "candy" and I built this Italian tradition in my marriage.
Across Europe there is a long tradition of offering a small gift or awedding favors to any person or family, guests at a reception given for special occasions such as weddings, christenings and anniversaries. Since the Middle Ages, confetti (sugared almonds) as part of wedding favors. Tradition says that the confetti submitted for each person (or family) together with a special gift in recognition for their support and good wishes. Even after the festive wedding favor for those who could not attend sent, but sent a gift or card asSymbol of gratitude and appreciation.
Even (odd) number as happiness, are so five (5) contain confetti in the rule of candy to represent health, wealth, fertility, happiness and long life. More than five are used, if desired, always with an odd number. A Sticky for (small tag) or printed tape is affixed with the date of the event along with the name.
Traditional wedding favors (favors) are handmade in Italy with silk, organza, tulle,Ribbon and flowers. They can be filled with your choice of almonds - almond, chocolate or chocolate-covered almonds, and a nice Sticky (small tag) from Italy is also somehow connected to the Favour.
