'cakes' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'forced dialogue eating last of dundee' is the wordplay.
'forced' becomes 'made' (both can mean coerced).
'dialogue' becomes 'lines' (I've seen this in another clue).
'eating' indicates putting letters inside.
'last of' says to take the final letters.
The last letter of 'dundee' is 'e'.
'lines' going around 'e' is 'leines'.
'made'+'leines'='MADELEINES'
