A gift product comprising a candy box with a plurality of individually wrapped pieces of candy, and a greeting card formed in one piece with the candy box. The greeting card comprises a front wall of the candy box and a greeting card panel formed in one piece with the front wall and moveable between a closed position in which the greeting card panel covers the front wall and an open position in which the greeting card panel uncovers the front wall. The greeting card panel has an outside surface which is visible to a person holding the gift product when the panel is in the closed position and an inside surface which is visible to a person holding the gift product when the panel is in the open position. The front wall of the candy box has a window through which the individually wrapped pieces of candy can be viewed when the panel is in the open position. The outside and inside surfaces of the greeting card panel, and the individual candy wrappers all have a common personal sentiment thereon, so that when the gift product is closed the common personal sentiment is conveyed by the outside surface of the panel, and when the gift product is opened, the common personal sentiment is conveyed by the inside surface of the panel and the candy wrappers which are visible through the window in the front wall of the candy box.
