new bread

Warm from oven

New bread is bread that has been recently baked, still fresh and soft.

The phrase appears in contexts distinguishing it from stale or day-old bread: The bakery sells new bread in the morning and discounts yesterday's loaves by afternoon.

New bread is prized for its texture and aroma but can be harder to slice cleanly than bread that has cooled and firmed.
