The world of cooking has many legends, rumors and myths. We are trying to gather all the facts and present them to you.
Life Savers were invented in 1912 by Clarence Crane, a Cleveland chocolate maker who wanted a sweet product that wouldn't melt in the summer heat. He decided on a peppermint hard candy in the shape of a circle with a hole in the middle. Since the mints looked like miniature life preservers, he called them Life Savers and registered the trademark. |
