The Baby Ruth Candy Bar was originally named Kandy Kake by its inventor, Curtiss Candy Company, who re-worked and re-named it the Baby Ruth Candy Bar in 1921. Curtiss was purchased by Nabisco in 1981 and, in 1990, RJR Nabisco sold the Curtiss brands to NestlĂ© who continues to be the current manufacturer. Although many people believe the Baby Ruth Candy Bar to be named after the famous slugger Babe Ruth, the Curtiss Candy Company has always claimed that it was named after the daughter of President Grover Cleveland; Ruth Cleveland. Interestingly, the Curtiss Candy Company was located on the same street as Wrigley Field and changed the candy's original name from " Kandy Kake" to "Baby Ruth" during the time Babe Ruth's career was on the rise; 30 years after President Cleveland had left the white house, and 17 years after his daughter, Ruth, had died. Many people saw the explanation of the origin of the name to be a cunning way to avoid paying Babe Ruth any royalties.

By E. Haran Still the great tasting candy bar! Good size and fresh. Arrived promptly - used it as a reward for work well done - back when the World Series was on.
