Smörgåstårta

(Swedish for ), or sandwich cake (; ; ), is a savoury main dish, not a dessert, of Swedish origin, popular in Sweden, Finland, Estonia, and Iceland, etc. The name is quite literal, with the dish consisting of a cake-like dish, mainly festive, but composed of layers of bread bound with large amounts of sandwich filling and garnish, structurally similar to a layered cream cake, but culinarily more in line with Toast Skagen. When eaten, it is sliced and served like any other cake.

== Preparation and serving == A smörgåstårta is typically made up of several layers of white or light rye bread (albeit dark bread also appear) with creamy fillings in between. The fillings and toppings vary, and may be lunch meat, smoked, graved, or pickled fish (especially smoked salmon), shellfish (especially shrimp and ), caviar (or 'caviar cream'), cheeses, liver pâté, cream salads (like mimosa salad), and sliced vegetables, but egg, mayonnaise, and sourcream/crème fraîche are often the base. Even vegan variants occur. The top garnish often reflects the main ingredients used as a filling.
