Unsatisfactory compromise (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fudge

(Other definitions for fudge that I've seen before include "Sweet - unsatisfactory compromise" , "Falsify - soft sweet" , "Very sweet confection" , "sugar, butter and cream" , "Soft sweet of sugar and butter - fake it" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
