Directions:

Beat together cream cheese and sour cream.
Dice onion finely.

Spoon mixture into a round pie plate and smooth flat.
Using a sharp knife, score the top of the dip as shown in the designs below:





Chill dip.

Spoon caviar onto paper towel to absorb excess dye.
Gently spoon blotted caviar onto dip, following the outlines you scored onto the dip earlier, to create diamonds of caviar in alternating colours.



Slice spring onions.
Top corners and centre of the dip with spring onions to complete the design.

Serve chilled with fine whole grain crackers.
