How many slices are in a standard loaf of bread? A: The standard loaf of sandwich bread contains approximately 20 to 24 slices of bread, including the end pieces (often referred to as the âheelsâ). Loaves of specialty breads, such as Texas toast, sourdough and multi-grain, contain approximately 16 to 18 slices. Loaves of thin-sliced bread contain approximately 26 slices.
1 In Ireland, the most popular bread type is known as sliced pan, sold in 800- or 400-gram loaves, wrapped in wax paper, with the slices conveniently sized for making sandwiches and toast.  In Japan, the same half-loaf of bread is labeled by the number of slices (usually 4, 5, or 6, and occasionally 8 or 10). Thin sliced crustless sandwich bread is also sold in Japan, since regular 4-6 slice bread is deemed too thick.
