Sweets and chocolate bar that has approval from the sovereign? (12)
I believe the answer is:
marshmallows
'sweets' is the definition.
(marshmallow is a kind of sweet)
'chocolate bar that has approval from the sovereign?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'approval' could be 'ma' (MA is an example) and 'ma' is present in the answer.
'from' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is present in the answer.
'sovereign?' could be 'r' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'r' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for marshmallows that I've seen is " Spongy, gelatin-filled sweets".)
