Desserts? Against abandoning indulgences (4)
I believe the answer is:
ices
'desserts?' is the definition.
(ice is a kind of dessert)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ices that I've seen before include "Kills (slang) - sweets" , "Freezes" , "they may be held in the summer" , "Cold refreshments" , "ecorates with frosting" .)
