OPEN sandwich...
The filling use ...
on a cake instead or between two slices of bread, lend themselves to
clever designs for the Valentine party.

Brown bread sandwiches cut heart shape with a cookie cutter, spread with cream cheese and sprinkled with a few nut meats, can be varied with white bread sandwiches spread with cream, cheese which has been colored a Valentine red with maraschino cherry juice.

Oblong pieces of whole wheat bread may be spread with cream cheese on which rings of stuffed olives are placed, while others can feature a red heart cut from pimento on the light cheese background. Green heart designs can be made on the white cheese with picalilli using a cone made of stiff, white paper to trace the design.
