Crazy person’s rich teatime fare (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fruitcake

I believe this is a double definition.

'crazy person's' is the first definition.
(fruitcake can informally mean a crazy person)

'rich teatime fare' is the second definition.
(rich snack)

(Other definitions for fruitcake that I've seen before include "fancy?" , "Nutty" , "Dundee dessert - madman" , "one off his trolley" , "Eccentric person" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
