Represented as an edible line in confectionery (7,4)
I believe the answer is:
aniseed ball
'confectionery' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'represented as an edible line' is the wordplay.
'represented' indicates anagramming the letters.
'line' becomes 'l'.
'as'+'an'+'edible'='asanedible'
'asanedible' anagrammed gives 'aniseedbal'.
'aniseedbal'+'l'='ANISEED BALL'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aniseed ball that I've seen before include "Strongly-flavoured sweet" , "Flavoursome sweet" , "Pungent sweet" .)
