A little about this dish

Inspired by the Big Apple on Sandwich Day, our 'New Yorker Celebratory Sandwich' blends iconic New York ingredients into one sublime, mouth-watering masterpiece. The key constituents are a fresh bagel, locally sourced smoked salmon, crisp apple slices, and a rich, creamy dill cream cheese spread. We've also added some 'bling' in gold edible glitter for that truly New York touch.

A final fox tip

The combination of salmon and cream cheese is reminiscent of a classic New York staple, the lox bagel sandwich. The addition of apple and edible glitter turns it into a celebratory feast. For a vegan version, substitute salmon with vegan lox (carrot) and cream cheese with a dairy-free version.
