rosettes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wrapped up ready for fans to buy' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'they're in the store' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'store' is 'roset' which is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'es' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rosettes that I've seen before include "Badges in the form of flowers" , "Circular ribbon badges" , "Floral-like ornaments made of ribbons" , "Eventing awards" , "Favours, prize badges" .)
