  1. Manjula Ji I want to know what kind of cream cheese you used and where I can find it I got one from Walmart but that looks pretty hard to me if there is any specific kind plz let me know where I can find it

  2. Cream cheese is sort of the American version of a fresh spreadable cheese like Mascarpone or Boursin. If you like to make fresh cheeses, you can do this at home, but most of us Americans just buy Philadelphia Cream Cheese. I’m going to try these tea sandwiches, Manjula. They look so light and dainty.
