- Advertising Poster, "Good Fun, Good Food, Curtiss Baby Ruth Candy," circa 1950 - In 1921, the Curtiss Candy Company introduced the Baby Ruth. The five-cent, chocolate-covered caramel and peanut bar became a sales success -- aided by the name's similarity to baseball star George Herman "Babe" Ruth. The company denied the fortuitous connection insisting they named the candy bar for former President Grover Cleveland's daughter. Whatever the name's origin, Curtiss had a hit.
