**Spuccadella** is an [Italian-American](/source/Italian-American) [bread roll](/source/Bread_roll) that has a long, pointed shape.[1][2] It is used in the preparation of the spuckie sandwich, which is what the "Italian sandwich" is called in some areas of [Boston](/source/Boston), Massachusetts.[1][2][3] The spuckie is still available in some sandwich shops in the Boston area.[4]

The name derives from the Italian **spaccatella**, a term given to various types of bread with a "crack" or split, generally on the top surface. Spaccatella is eaten at the table or used to make sandwiches.
