Ingredients:

Serving

3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
2 tbsp capers, drained and chopped
2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
coarse salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 loaves pumpernickel bread, cut into 16 half-inch slices, with crusts
1 lb smoked salmon, thinly sliced
1 1/2 english seedless cucumbers, thinly sliced into 1/8-inch slices, patted dry, plus more slices for decorating sides of cake
1/2 cup creme fraiche
2 1/2 oz salmon roe
1 oz black caviar
lemon wedge, plus more dill chopped for garnish

Directions:

In a small bowl, combine 8 ounces cream cheese, the red onion, capers, dill, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper, and stir until smooth. Lay 4 bread slices on a clean work surface; trim 1/4 inch from all sides of slices. Spread 1 tablespoon cream-cheese mixture on top of 1 slice, and layer with smoked salmon and cucumber (try not to overlap cucumber slices). Spread another thin layer of the cream-cheese mixture on top. Repeat with 2 more bread slices.
Neatly stack prepared slices, filling side up, squaring the sides with your hands; top with the fourth bread slice. Repeat with remaining bread and filling to create three more stacks in this way.
Transfer stacks to a serving platter with their long sides touching. In a small bowl, combine remaining 16 ounces cream cheese and the crème fraîche, mixing until smooth. Using an offset spatula, spread mixture evenly over assembled cake. Refrigerate, covered, 2 hours or overnight.
Before serving, arrange overlapping cucumber slices around base of cake; spoon salmon roe and caviar along the top, and sprinkle with dill. Garnish the platter with lemon wedges.
