Smorgastarta?

There is a magnificent Swedish dish that I was introduced to today. I have not found any word for it in English. It is like a mix between a cake and a sandwich, made up of layers of bread interspaced with creamy, cheesy, salty filling and decorated with delicacies. This smörgåstårta (smorgastarta?) had schrimp and eggs in it. It was decorated with eggs, a great amount of schrimp, slices of cucumber and cheese, bits of tomatoes, and lettuce. I really liked it. In my mind, the only problem was that my piece was too small.
