In summary

Borrowed from Italian confetti (plural), reinterpreted as a singular (compare spaghetti). Doublet of confit. See English confetti for more. The shift of the sense from little projectiles made of plaster to coloured pieces of paper originated in the late 19th century in Paris with their use during public festivities.
