Smörgåstårta – for a 24 cm springform pan

Beautiful and delicious – that’s how food should be. This cleverly layered sandwich cake certainly meets these criteria! Wash the cucumber and radish and slice them thinly. Boil the eggs for about ten minutes. Divide the sour cream into thirds, divide them between the three cream cheeses, season with salt and pepper if desired, and mix everything together until creamy. Place the outer ring of a springform pan or a cake/baking ring (approx. 24 cm in diameter) on a cake plate. Line the base with four sandwich slices, trimming them to fit the pan. Spread the slices completely with half of the horseradish cream cheese and then top with half of the smoked salmon. Arrange four more sandwich slices on top, spread them with half of the herb cream cheese, sprinkle with half of the grated cheese, and top with a few slices of cucumber and radish. Add another layer of smoked salmon and grated cheese, respectively. Cover the last layer with sandwich slices. Remove the springform pan or cake/baking ring and spread the cream cheese all over the sandwich cake. A palette knife is ideal for this. Then chill for 15-30 minutes. Pick the leaves or tips from the washed and shaken-dry herbs. Finely chop half of the dill, then add it to the shrimp and mix. Slice the hard-boiled eggs and garnish the cake with them. Arrange the shrimp, cucumber and radish slices, and herbs on top. Garnish the outer edge with radish slices and chervil leaves. Enjoy!
