Like some cakes brought in twice daily (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iced

'like some cakes' is the definition.
(cakes may be decorated with icing)

'brought in twice daily' is the wordplay.
'brought in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ICED' is hidden in the letters of 'twice daily'.

(Other definitions for iced that I've seen before include "Chilled; decorated" , "reduced number of degrees" , "What cake might be" , "Frozen, chilled" , "Frozen - with a sugary topping" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
