Freezing some confectionery (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

icing

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'freezing' is the first definition.
(I know that icing is a type of freezing)

'some confectionery' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for icing that I've seen before include "The sweetest part of the cake" , "Concreted sugar" , "Sugary topping" , "Sweet cake topping" , "Cake-topper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
