A dessert complexion? (7,3,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peaches and cream

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

'complexion?' is the definition.
('peaches and cream' can describe a fair complexion)

'a dessert' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peaches and cream that I've seen before include "Sweet" , "sort of complexion" .)

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