          大明 refers to the Ming dynasty.



          宣德年 means the era of Xuande, about AD 1425 - 1435.



          裸銀寶 means raw silver sycee.



          至上 PERHAPS means your highness (this is probably a wild guess).

Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
