So what is the remarkable thing about Sugar Babies? Yes, they’re small pieces of caramel – one of the nation’s favorite sweets. And, yes, they’re packaged in a handy bag, easy to carry and stash in the drawer.  As for the name – Sugar Babies. Easy to remember for sure. But the name – like the candy itself, is memorable for another reason. Sugar babies were one the first marketing endeavors to feature “brand extension” of products. There was the Sugar Daddy, a caramel lollipop, followed by the Sugar Mama, a chocolate covered Sugar Daddy (no longer in production), and their delightful off-spring, Sugar Babies. Buy one, buy all. Quite a family!

The Sugar Babies Family: Sugar Daddy, Sugar Mama, and More

Another caramel favorite with a spicy name was the Sugar Daddy, invented by Robert Welch, a chocolate salesman for his brother's James Welch Co. This Sugar Daddy was named for the other sugar daddy, an older gentleman who obliges a younger woman, wife, mistress, or whoever she may be, with all the comforts his fortune can supply.

This Sugar Daddy was named for the other sugar daddy, an older gentleman who obliges a younger woman, wife, mistress, or whoever she may be, with all the comforts his fortune can supply. Apparently, that sugar daddy originated with one Alma Spreckels. It’s the pet name she gave her considerably older husband and heir to the Spreckels's sugar fortune in 1908. Originally, the candy was called the “Papa Sucker.” We’re all glad they changed it. Can you imagine calling it “Papa Sucker” today? It’s almost too embarrassing to talk about. And you do know what I mean.
