According to some internet searching, candy corn was created in the 1880s and then taken over in 1900 by the Goelitz Candy Company which is now known as Jelly Belly. Apparently it was popular for candy companies during this time to make their treats in the shape of items found in nature.
Fun facts:
- 20 million pounds are sold each year
- The top of the corn is the yellow end
- The original candies were made by hand and were flavored with honey
