Lets ice-cream container fall while making little pancake (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
drop scone
'pancake' is the definition.
(another name for a Scotch pancake)
'lets ice-cream container fall while making little' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'ice' could be 'cone' (I've seen this before) and 'cone' is located in the answer.
'fall' could be 'drop' (synonyms) and 'drop' is found within the answer.
A single letter 's' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drop scone that I've seen before include "Scotch pancake" , "Girdlecake" , "Eating" , "cake" , "Small and thick pancake" .)
