Cloying sentimentality (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

treacle

'cloying sentimentality' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for treacle that I've seen before include "Sweet, black viscous substance" , "Golden syrup" , "Viscous liquid" , "Electra (anag)" , "flattery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
