Hunk's hat is sweet (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gobstopper

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

'is sweet' is the definition.
(type of large sweet)

'hunk's hat' is the wordplay.
'hunk's' becomes 'gobs' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'hat' becomes 'topper' (topper is a kind of hat).
'gobs'+'topper'='GOBSTOPPER'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gobstopper that I've seen before include "Big sweet" , "Large, hard spherical sweet" , "Large, hard sweet to suck" , "Hard round sweet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
