Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "Artist sends animal out for some confectionery" is a cryptic clue where the surface reading does not directly reveal the answer. Here's why the answer to this clue is "CARAMEL":

1. Artist Sends: In cryptic crosswords, "artist" can refer to the abbreviation "RA" for Royal Academician. So, "artist sends" suggests taking the letters RA.
2. Animal Out: The word "animal" hints at removing the letters that represent an animal from the word. The typical abbreviation for "animal" used in crosswords is "ELK," so we remove "ELK" from the word.
3. For Some Confectionery: "Confectionery" leads us to think of sweets or candies. "CARAMEL" is a type of confectionery.

Putting these components together, we get "RA" (Artist) sending "ELK" (Animal out), leading to "CARAMEL," which fits the clue's requirements perfectly and is the correct answer for today's crossword clue.
