Is this where bankers are hiding cream cake? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eclair

'cream cake?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for eclair that I've seen before include "Lacier type of confection" , "Food" , "A long thin cake with chocolate covering" , "Comedienne" , "Long affair with pastry, chocolate and cream?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
