Bit of Christmas candy (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cane

(Other definitions for cane that I've seen before include "not beet" , "Stick; thrash" , "Slender stem of bamboo etc" , "African country formerly called Gold Coast" , "Staff < with walking-stick" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the LA Times.
