Torte, say (4)
I believe the answer is:
cake
'torte say' is the definition.
(torte is a kind of cake)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for cake that I've seen before include "Eg, Genoa, Dundee" , "Dundee, Madeira, Christmas or birthday?" , "Mixture of flour, sugar, eggs and fat" , "Item of food or soap" , "Marie Antoinette's solution to 8" .)
