FAQs

• What is a Bon?

  Bon Bon Bons are “good goodies,” which essentially means that they can be made up of whatever sweet little concoctions we can dream up! This gives us the opportunity to come up with Bons using lots of local ingredients, some very far-away ingredients and a little artistic interpretation to create flavors that range from classic to bizarre, familiar to exotic, all-candy to all-chocolate. They're fun, can you tell? They're delicious, too!

• What's up with your packaging?

  "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get" to us, is a problem that seems so easy to fix! Bon Bon Bons, or "Bons" as they're called on the street here in Detroit, are labelled, so you always know what you are going to get! The boxes are built to order which means you never need to guess how many are in a pound and we will never force you to fill a 12-piece box when all you wanted was eight! The packaging itself is 100% curbside recyclable and sources from less than a mile away from our little manufactory!

• How do I open the Box?

  Carefully! Kidding... First, lay the Box Box Box on a flat surface, Bon Bon Bon side up! Then, slit through the black and white "BON" tape on the far left and far right of you! You’re almost there. Now, remove the rubber band carefully....and....Voila! You should see a line of Bons down the center of the box, each labelled and ready to eat! When you are opening the little orange box, think of a finger trap! What you want to do is leave the sticker on and pull out the "flaps" on each side. When each flap is folded down, stick your finger through to push the Bon out one of the sides!

• Who are "The Babes Babes Babes"?

  The Babes Babes Babes are a group of hyper-diverse (mostly) women (sorry, Alex G.) who are united by their dedication to creativity, chocolate and community! Some of us are shy, some are outgoing, we're all a bit sassy and all a bit snuggly. Other than that we could not be more different, and we aim to keep it that way! It keeps us creative, and constantly facing new experiences. Together we can do anything.

• How do you invent new flavors?

  We don't totally know! But we like to do it... every day, really! If anyone is looking to do some academic research on innovation in a small company, we'd be curious to hear you tell us how this magical process is actually working! Teach us! We love learning! bonbonbon@bonbonbon.com

• How does Bon Bon Bon manage allergies?

  We produce all of our Bons in a little tiny manufactory that handles nuts, wheat, soy, dairy, eggs, honey, shellfish, and meat. Please note that we are able to avoid these items when we’re made aware of certain allergies. We cannot however, guarantee that any of our Bons are completely free from any of the items listed above. We don't want to hurt you! Ever! So, if you have a severe or life threatening allergy, please refrain from eating Bons.

• Can I include a note with my order if itʼs a gift?

  Of course! While in store, ask us for a note stamp on your box. We also have gift cards made by local artists available for purchase. Let us know how we can make it special! We live for this stuff...

• How long do bons last?

  Our Bons are made fresh with local ingredients. Unlike more conventional chocolate, we don't use preservatives and tons of sugar, which means they taste way better but have a way shorter shelf life. We guarantee each Bon is good for a week after it leaves the shop. If you have a special event, place your order accordingly so your Bons are as fresh as possible.

• Can I place a larger order for an event?

  You certainly can! We love events and making custom bons that fit your vision! See our Events & Large Orders page for more detailed information. Please email bonbonbon@bonbonbon.com to inquire.
