We often have this at school on a monday but without the caviar, im not a fan of caviar, but if you are this is simply perfect. Miss Pixie x x x

I made this as a crostini over french bread to match with a dry champagne and it was great! I actually used low fat cream cheese and mixed in chives. I think the structure of the lf cream cheese made it easier to pump into the salmon rolls. Thanks for the simple and elegant appetizer!

Lovely presentation & an idea that will get tried here soon ... Iceland where smoked trout/salmon abound & fishing is a religion. Hint: To elminate trouble handling smoked fish, freezing & then slicing w/your sharpest knife gets you perfect slices every time.

Excellent! It has a fresh buttery taste from the cheese and the salmon! So tasty....i didn't have enough smoked salmon, so i just put the ingredients together by approximate, butthey are still good! I didn't have parsley at home, so i instead use fresh sweet basil...Yummy!! I'll sure make it next time when my friends come dinner @ my house...Thanks a lot Bergy!

I skipped the caviar, but everything else was lovely. I was really looking for a light seafood appetizer for Thanksgiving to balance a heavy meal. I struggled a little with making cones from the salmon. My advice, lay a piece in you hand and then form a right triangle at one end and then continue rolling. I also struggled with making a pastry bag out of parchment paper -- I always forget how to do this. Looked very nice and tasted good too. Will make again.
