| | What is Confetti?
The "Confetti" in Confetti Flowers refers to flower favors made with the candy-coated almond called "confetto" in Italian. For many Meditteranean cultures, a celebration is incomplete without the gift of these sugared almonds to recognize the "bitter and sweet" of life.
In America, sugared almonds are generally called "Jordan Almonds," for the smooth, slender Jordan River variety. Most Jordan Almonds sold bulk in craft stores and supermarkets are made with round California almonds and have hard, crunchy sugar coating. What a difference from real imported sugared almonds from Italy, sold here!
Our Italian confetti is true to Italian high standards for food: tender-to-the-bite flat almonds, lightly sugared and very fresh. The most prized almonds (and most expensive) are the "Avola" variety from Sicily. Most confetti almond production is concentrated in the Abruzzo and Campania regions i Confetti Color Code:
White and Ivory for the Wedding, the First Holy Communion and Confirmation. Pink or blue for the Baptism. Green is for Engagement. Red for Confirmation and Graduation. Silver for 25th wedding anniversaries. Gold for 50th year of marriage.
The Amarischia Confetteria del Cuore line is Kosher Parve. A Kashruth Certificate is available upon request. You will find Kosher Parve confetti almonds in our selection of sugared, gold, silver and chocolate almonds. |
| | What are Confetti Ribbon Flowers? Direct from Italy, a stylish new way to give the traditional five Jordan almond wedding favor.
Use these specially designed pocketed ribbons from Italy to hold five sugared almonds. Customize them to your color or theme with decorations. Then, attach favors to presents, pass them out to guests, or use them as table decor.
To many American brides with roots in Italian, Greek, and other Mediterranean cultures, sharing Jordan almonds favors at wedding represent both the bitter and sweet aspects of life.
A gift of five confetti is a wish for health, wealth, happiness, fertility, and long life.
How to make confetti flowers:
From a bolt of ribbon, cut off a length of special pocketed ribbon, sometimes called coccardi or portaconfetti.
Insert a sugared almond into each petal.
Gather the sewn-in double tension strings from each side to form a flower.
Insert a floral or sparkly accent in the middle for a finishing touch.
Choose from our ribbon designs in satin, gingham, lace, linen and net. In colors, ivory and white are most popular, with pink and blue and greens for showers. Made in Italy.
