  1. Cut bread into circles, make 2 circles from each slice of bread.  You will need 3 circles to make 1 sandwich.  Alternate white-wheat-white and wheat-white-wheat.
  2. Spread cream cheese on one side of bread.  Use cream cheese on each of the 3 slices per sandwich, or alternate with mayonnaise, mustard, flavoured cream cheese, etc.
  3. Assemble sandwiches as follows: Place a round of bread on plate, with cream cheese side up.  Add a slice of cucumber & meat slice (if desired).  Top with the other type of bread.  Add tomato & a cheese circle.  Top with same bread as bottom piece, with cream cheese/condiment side down.  Put a fancy toothpick in the center of your sandwich tower
  4. If not serving immediately, cover & refrigerate.
