Best Answer

The origin of the word or the process? The word comes from Latin via Old French confectio

- preparation. The process originally applied to apothecaries preparing medicines using sugar to make them palatable, and was later applied to all foods where sugar is used, although it's debatable that the term should be applied to pastries and cakes which involve flour.
