Where does “scrumptious” come from?

I need to identify the origin chain for "scrumptious" based on the provided data, but I notice the chain given appears to be for "sumptuous," not "scrumptious." However, following your instructions to state only what the chain supports: I cannot write an accurate etymology sentence because the chain provided (sumptuous > somptueux > sumptuosus > sumptus) does not match the headword "scrumptious," and the meaning is marked unknown. If you intended for me to write about **sumptuous** instead, here is the sentence: Sumptuous derives from French somptueux, from Latin sumptuosus, from Latin sumptus meaning expended or spent. If "scrumptious" is the intended headword, please provide the correct etymological chain for that word.
