Ingredients

6 hard-boiled eggs, very finely chopped
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
salt and pepper
1 sweet onion, very finely chopped
8 ounces cream cheese
2/3 cup sour cream
black caviar
20 crackers, to serve

Method

Combine the ingredients for the bottom layer and press this mixture into an 8 inch springform pan.
Spread the middle layer over the base, then prepare and add the top layer ingredients.
Refrigerate the assembled torte overnight.
Employ a cookie cutter on the chilled surface and fill the resulting shape with caviar to create an attractive pattern.
For a wedding, we selected a heart shape, filling it with salmon roe and arranging more around the border to complement our orange colour scheme.
Another beautiful presentation uses a small red caviar heart in the centre, encircled by black caviar around the outer edges.
Detach the pan's sides and present the torte alongside crackers for serving.
