Sugary dessert (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sweet

I believe this is a double definition.

'sugary' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'dessert' is the second definition.
(I know that dessert can be written as sweet)

(Other definitions for sweet that I've seen before include "Confection" , "Pud" , "Afters" , "Gentle" , "Pleasing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express and The Mirror.
