Comment: "Dans ce contexte précis, j'ai opté pour toasts. "Amuse-gueules" convient aussi très bien ici. Merci pour votre aide précieuse !"

: This would be the case if the bread rolls here were being sold in a bakery, but as they are being served in a business meeting, I believe it refers to open rolls with a topping.

: I agree with JDM: here, we are talking about some kind of 'open sandwich' filling. In EN, we wouldn't say 'topped' on its own, if it meant sesame or sugar or something, we'd always say 'sugar-topped' etc.

: I don't think that these buns are filled, but rather that they have some sort of topping such as onions or poppy seeds.

assortiment de petits pains ouverts (garnis)
Assortiment de petits pains ouverts, ou, petits pains ouverts garnis.
Given the context here of food being provided in a meeting, this refers to bread rolls that have been cut in two across the middle with a topping, such as chicken, tuna, ham and cheese etc. The confusion here comes from "topped" used on its own, whereas this type of buffet food is often referred to in English as "open topped bread rolls".

Assortiments de petits pains ouverts garnis selon les salades et les produits de saison.
Exemple :Tartare de tomate, poulet au citron et coriandre, Carpaccio de boeuf et copeau de parmesan, Caviar d’aubergine et pignon de pin, Rillettes de saumon et baies rose, Jambon de parme et fruit de saison, tomate et mozzarella, Tartare de saumon, Brie

: I think the problem is that the idea of a roll is usually that you close it round the filling, so here what we have is an 'open sandwich' made using ½ a roll.

Thanks, Tony. It's important to state the 'open' and the 'roll' IMO, to make a difference between these and what follows in the list - the standard sandwiches with fillings.
