We have just solved an Araucaria crossword , No 2 in "The Guardian Monkey Puzzles" book
The last clue solved was
19d. Clerical cakestand! (6)
and the correct answer we arrived at, is CURATE

Unusually for an Araucaria clue, though we know CURATE is a cleric, we have been unable to parse this. Can anyone suggest the correct parsing of it, please?

Thanks in anticipation
