Frosted Sandwich Loaf image

Akin to the Swedish smörgåstårta, this beautiful presentation looks a lot more complicated than it really is. From the Wisconsin Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Institute of Chicago, 1947. A variation includes pimiento cheese salad. Cooking time is chilling time after assembly.
