Perhaps you are referring to "bon bon"-- this is a small candy, usually covered with chocolate. The word comes from the French "bon"-- which means good. It referred to the fact that these candies tasted really good. Since the word is originally French in origin, I would imagine people in France call the candy "bon bons" just like Americans do; except in English, we pronounce the final -s of the plural, whereas in French, it is usually a silent letter.
