I believe the answer is:

caked

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">encrusted</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for caked that I've seen before include "Thickly smeared" , "sponged?" , "Covered with mud" , "laid on thick" , "Made hard" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and the King Feature Syndicate.
