Chocolate source (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cacao

'chocolate source' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cacao that I've seen before include "Bean providing chocolate" , "Tree yielding chocolate" , "Tree from which chocolate is made" , "Plant" , "Tropical tree, the source of chocolate" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the LA Times, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, the Newsday, The Sunday Times, The New York Times and The Times.
