This is an example of why the forum posting tips suggest keeping all questions for one puzzle on one thread :)

The earlier answer not only solved the clue, but explained the parsing. The first and last letters of 'shopwoman' are S + N: Sn is the chemical symbol for tin. The first and last letters of the answer are S + N: Tin is split. 'Split tin' is a variety of bread
