Baker's decorating seems a little eccentric, in general (5)
I believe the answer is:
icing
'baker's decorating' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'a little eccentric in general' is the wordplay.
'a little' indicates a hidden word (a little bit of the clue).
'ICING' is hidden in the letters of 'eccentric in general'.
'seems' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for icing that I've seen before include "East European nation" , "unwelcome on aircraft" , "Concreted sugar" , "Sweet coating on cake" , "Attractive addition or bonus, as on cake" .)
