sandwich loaf

Bread for slices

A sandwich loaf is a rectangular loaf of bread with a fine, uniform crumb and soft crust, designed specifically for slicing into even pieces for sandwiches.

The term also refers to a party dish: a loaf-shaped stack of crustless bread slices layered with savory fillings and covered in cream cheese or similar spread, then sliced to reveal colorful stripes.
