Have you ever tasted Japanese fruit sandwiches? I like ham and cheese sandwiches with toasty brown bread, but I’m also a fan of dessert style sandwiches with plenty of fruits and cream. In Japan, this fruit sandwich is very popular that you can get at every sandwich shops and convenience stores. When I go to sandwich shops for a lunch, I always buy savory one and a fruit sandwich too as my dessert. To be honest, the fruit sandwich is the main reason to go to sandwich shops.
So today I will show you how to make my favorite fruit sandwiches at home. You can make it with your favorite seasonal fruit and other 4 ingredients: white bread, heavy cream, condensed milk and sugar. Even though I call this sandwich for dessert, the cream is not as sweet as the one with the decorated cakes. This gentle sweetness of the cream gives a way you will be able to taste of each fruit. So it might be nice to eat for breakfast too. My family, especially my husband also loves this kind of sandwiches. And we occasionally packed them to take outside for a family picnic.

The reason why I adore the fruit sandwich in the first place is because this shop (the photograph below). The brand with the cute bear called Märchen is famous domestic company of Japanese developed sandwich. Other than sweet sandwiches, they also have a variety of savory selections. But my love of their sandwich is sweet one at all times. This fruit sandwich recipe is perhaps a copycat of their sandwich.

Tips

  • Choose thin sliced soft white bread to moisturize by absorbing moisture from whipped cream.
  • When you cut the fruit showing cut sections, try to arrange them in height. The fruit you are NOT going to use for cut sections, you can cut into small pieces without much thought.
  • Remove excess water of fruit before placing them over the cream. Otherwise the cream gets soggy.
  • Line up the same height fruit in the center-line (see the photograph below) of a slice of bread at first, where you will show beautiful cut section of the fruit. Then fill the empty space with the other small sized fruit.
  • Remember or mark on the plastic wrap which direction you’re going to cut in half.
  • Cut with a sharp knife with a small movement. Be careful not to spill the fruit and cream out of the bread.
