Method
- Spread each rice cake thinly with cream cheese right to the edge.
- Top with cucumber coins and halved cherry tomatoes, pressing them lightly into the cheese.
- Pack the cakes and the toppings separately if the box sits until second break — assembled they go soft in a couple of hours.
- Send a small pot of the cream cheese so they can be built at the table.
