Elevate your next tea party with delightful tea sandwiches! These dainty delights are more than just finger food – they're a delicious way to add a touch of sophistication and charm to your gathering. Each bite-sized sandwich offers a burst of flavor, from the refreshing coolness of cucumber and cream cheese to the richness of smoked salmon and herbs. Because they're small and easy to eat, they allow your guests to mingle and indulge in a variety of savory and delightful options. Plus, the beautiful presentation – often with crusts removed and cut into elegant shapes – adds a touch of whimsy to your brunch table.
