Perfect Occasions to Gift Chocolate—and the Right Colour Packaging for Each

Chocolate is one of the most timeless, elegant, and versatile gifts you can offer. Whether it’s a romantic gesture, a festive celebration, or a professional thank-you, chocolate fits beautifully into every occasion. But what truly elevates the experience is thoughtful packaging—the right colour can add meaning, emotion, and personalization to your gift.

At Les Bonbons, we not only craft luxurious artisan chocolates but also offer curated colour themes like white, gold, green, and red to match the moment.

Here’s your ultimate guide to when to gift chocolate and what colour to choose for each special occasion.

1. Birthdays – Go with Bold and Joyful Red

Birthdays call for vibrant celebration, and red symbolizes joy, love, and life. A box of Les Bonbons wrapped in deep red makes a bold statement of affection and festivity—whether it’s for a friend, family member, or partner.

Try This: Pair red packaging with our signature hazelnut pralines or fruit-infused bonbons for a playful, celebratory touch.

2. Weddings & Engagements – Elegant in Gold

Gold is the colour of luxury, commitment, and prosperity—ideal for weddings, anniversaries, or engagements. A beautifully wrapped gold chocolate box adds a touch of class to bridal showers, wedding favours, or “congratulations” gifts.

Tip: Our white chocolate ganache or Dubai pistachio chocolate in gold packaging make exquisite wedding offerings.

3. New Baby Arrival – Pure and Serene White

For baby showers or welcoming a newborn, white represents innocence, purity, and peace. Gifting white-wrapped chocolates—especially in minimalist or pastel-accented tones—is a tender and graceful gesture for new parents.

Beautiful Idea: Ask us for custom gender reveals or baby-themed assortments in white and blush pink or sky blue accents.

4. Corporate Gifting – Sophisticated in Green or Gold

When you want to impress a client or thank a colleague, presentation is key. Green symbolizes growth, harmony, and professionalism, while gold conveys prestige and gratitude.

• Green is great for year-end appreciations or eco-conscious branding.
• Gold works well for VIP clients, festive thank-yous, or milestone celebrations.

Corporate Touch: Les Bonbons offers custom branding, personalized tags, and luxury finishes for all professional gifting needs.

5. Valentine’s Day – Romantic Red or Gold

Valentine’s is the ultimate day for red—symbolizing love, desire, and passion. If you’re going for elegant romance, gold can also speak volumes of timeless affection.

Perfect Pick: Heart-shaped bonbons, passion-infused ganache, or dark chocolate treats in red or gold elevate any romantic moment.

6. Ramadan & Eid – Regal in Green or White

Green is a sacred colour in Islamic tradition, associated with renewal, peace, and spiritual richness, making it ideal for Ramadan or Eid gifting. White adds a serene, respectful elegance for these sacred occasions.

Festive Collection: Explore our Ramadan-inspired boxes with dates, saffron, and cardamom chocolate blends in green or white.

7. Christmas & New Year – Classic Red and Gold Combo

Red and gold are the classic holiday colours that signify joy, warmth, and prosperity. Gifting chocolates in this duo during Christmas or New Year is both festive and traditional.

Holiday Favourites: Include spiced chocolate, cinnamon ganache, or nut-studded bonbons in your seasonal box.

Conclusion: The Colour Behind the Chocolate Matters

Great chocolate is a gift from the heart. At Les Bonbons, we believe presentation is part of the experience—and choosing the right colour helps tell your story. Whether you’re celebrating, appreciating, or surprising, our elegantly wrapped boxes in white, gold, green, and red can be tailored to every emotion and occasion.
