Sweet god desert animal accepts (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

caramel

'sweet' is the definition.
(caramel is a kind of sweet)

'god desert animal accepts' is the wordplay.
'god' becomes 'Ra' (Egyptian god).
'desert animal' becomes 'camel' (I've seen this before).
'accepts' is an insertion indicator.
'ra' placed inside 'camel' is 'CARAMEL'.

(Other definitions for caramel that I've seen before include "Toffee-like sweet" , "Chew candy" , "Sugar solution heated till brown" , "Dark brown substance" , "It's produced by heating sugar until brown" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
