It's My Treat!

I'm always surprised to find Halloween candy on the store shelves in early August, right there next to back-to-school supplies. I don't
know why we can't just enjoy summer a little longer before rushing into fall festivities. That said, this puzzle has nothing to do with "trick or treat" candy, but about a special treat that I personally enjoy ALL year round!
Special thanks goes to Peter
@Abide for his editing advice, support and encouragement and to
@Joe Ross for technical help.

OTC … and into the kitchen for a treat!
Loved this puzzle almost as much as the delectability it evokes. Good one, Darth!

OTC, and I enjoyed the puzzle! While I'd love to have this treat, I'll have to settle for some fruit and cheese for now
