Bread Emoji

Food

A golden-brown loaf of bread with a sliced top, representing a standard white loaf or sourdough. It looks hearty, baked, and ready to be sliced for a sandwich.

Usage Context

Used to talk about cooking, breakfast, or the literal act of grocery shopping. It’s a staple in food-related conversations and often pairs well with 🧀 for grilled cheese or 🧈 for toast. Internet users also use this to refer to money or 'earning bread'.

History

Bread was added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of Emoji 6.0. It was initially designed to bridge the gap in food representation between Western breakfast cultures and the Japanese food icons already present in mobile messaging systems.
