Toast types in crosswords are common clues with several possible answers depending on length and region. Here are the most typical solutions you’ll encounter:

• MELBA (5 letters): Classic toast type named after Dame Juliana Melba. Often clued as “Toast type” or “toast type that’s a dessert topping,” and also appears in longer forms like “type of toast that’s flipped in the oven.”
• GONERS (6 letters): Slang for those who are “toast” in the sense of doomed or finished, used as a punny crossword answer for “toast types” in some clue sets.
• RYE (3 letters): A bread type sometimes clued as a bare “toast type” in shorter entries.

Notes to help you solve

• The exact answer depends heavily on the grid’s letter pattern (crossing words). If you have the number of letters or some crossing letters, I can narrow it down precisely.
• The clue “toast types” often yields MELBA in standard American-style puzzles, while LAT and other publications occasionally prefer playful or thematic answers like GONERS.

If you share the crossword’s grid pattern or the number of letters for the entry, I can pinpoint the correct solution and explain how the crossings confirm it.
