Inscription on gift for Daisy, possibly electrical appliance? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toaster

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'electrical appliance?' is the definition.
'toaster' can be an answer for 'appliance?' (toaster is a kind of appliance). I'm not certain of the 'electrical' bit.

'inscription on gift for daisy' is the wordplay.
'inscription on gift' becomes 'to' (eg 'To Dad').
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'daisy' becomes 'aster' (I've seen this before).
'to'+'aster'='TOASTER'

'possibly' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for toaster that I've seen before include "Device using sliced bead" , "Bread griller" , "Machine for making brown bread?" , "to get bread browner?" , "Kitchen gadget" .)
