Small sweet unwrapped (3)
I believe the answer is:
wee
'small' is the definition.
(Scottish term for small)
'sweet unwrapped' is the wordplay.
'unwrapped' indicates the central letters (the letters which wrap the word are removed).
The middle letters of 'sweet' are 'WEE'.
(Other definitions for wee that I've seen before include "Informally tiny as in Scotland" , "Jimmy" , "number one" , "(Scots) little" , "Little (Scottish)" .)
