The word started when someone in our office would bring a treat or a box of assorted donuts, pastries, cookies, etc. Since I may not want to eat the whole donut or pastry, but wanted a sample taste of a couple of the different selections of the goodies, I would cut a small piece out of the donut, cookie, etc., I wanted to sample - and I would leave the knife in the donut box if others wanted to do so as well.

Thus, it became known as "Sicconing" and over the years staff members picked up on my habit and started "Sicconing" too and applied the phrase to any food item.
"I am going to siccone a piece of that brownie.
