Sweet cracker (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bonbon

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

This might be a double definition.

'sweet' is the first definition.
(bonbon is a kind of sweet)

'cracker' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bonbon that I've seen before include "Sweetie" , "Candy, doubly good in France?" , "Confection" , "a tasty sweet - in France" , "French sweet" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
