Famous breads include the [[Scone of Stone]], which appears in ''[[Book:The Fifth Elephant|The Fifth Elephant]]''.

Other instances of dwarf bread include:

*the [[Battle Bread]] of [[B'hrian Bloodaxe]].
*the bread offered to the dwarfs outside [[Genua]] which was all the better for [[Greebo]] pissing on it.
