You can make a variety of sandwiches as well using egg salad, chicken salad, or tuna as layers, just make sure you chop or process the ingredients up enough so it spreads easily. Cream cheese will rip the delicate bread apart and other cheeses won’t hold the bread together and will make it hard to cut (as explained to me by the bakery workers). I know the Cheese Whiz sounds strange but it holds the sandwich together better than any other cheese. I actually called the bakery in Cedar City to see how they make them and they told me exactly how they do it. They are just so dainty and are perfect for little tea parties (or showers, birthdays. They were a HUGE hit with my little girls (my husband helped himself to a few and was pleasantly surprised how good were). Perfect for Parties of Every SizeĪ few days ago I decided to do a tea party with my kids and made these as one of the finger foods. No matter what you call them, they are a fun, versatile option to consider next time you’re in charge of the party food. Perhaps you’ve heard of these sandwiches by one of their other names. In fact, whenever I have mentioned them to others since, they look at me like they have no idea what I am talking about which is a shame because I think they are so cute! A Tea Sandwich By Any Other Name… Of course, a flood of memories came rushing back and I wondered why I have never had these little sandwiches outside of our hometown. The ones with a layer of deviled ham and a layer of Cheese Whiz (I know it sounds weird, but stick with me here).Ī couple of weeks ago, our nephew had his wedding reception in Cedar City and they served these as one of the appetizers. And not just any ribbon finger sandwiches - these EXACT ones. I don’t know if it was just a Cedar City thing or if it was just the times, but we had these all. Where we grew up, in Cedar City, UT, it seems there was never a baby shower, bridal shower, or wedding reception that didn’t have these tea sandwiches.
