Fainting Fancies are a type of sweet sold by Fred and George Weasley for their Skiving Snackbox to get students off lessons. Fainting Fancies are designed to make the eater faint within seconds of eating. In 1995, Fred and George feed them on first years in the common room to test them until they were stopped by Hermione Granger, who did not approve. There is some question as to how an unconscious person would be able to eat the second half of the sweet, though it is possible that he might just need a friend to put it in his mouth.
