Toast the bread slices in a skillet over medium heat until edges are golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.

Combine cream cheese and honey in a small bowl, stirring vigorously until mixture is silky smooth and lump-free, about 15–20 seconds.
Spread the creamy mixture generously over each warm toast slice, covering edges for maximum flavor.

For the Berry Topping

Arrange mixed fresh berries atop each toast, gently pressing to help them nestle into the creamy layer.
Sprinkle freshly grated lemon zest evenly over the berries.
Garnish with torn fresh mint leaves and a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
