Pleasantly sharp bakery product (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tart

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

'pleasantly sharp' is the definition.
'tart' can be an answer for 'sharp' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'pleasantly' bit.

'bakery product' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'product' could be 'tar' (I have seen 'Product of coal ' mean 'tar' so perhaps 'product' could also mean 'tar') and 'tar' is present in the answer.
A single letter 't' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tart that I've seen before include "See 10" , "The pastry sounds bitter" , "quiche, perhaps" , "Sharp on the tongue" , "Open fruit pie" .)
