CLDR, Unicode's list of search words, files pasta under Spaghetti alone and casserole under Shallow pan of food alone. Wikipedia calls the dish a casserole of stacked pasta, so the lasagna emoji here is 🍝🥘.

Lasagna emoji copy and paste: two pairs
🍝🥘 is the baked dish, and Unicode's own second names for the pan are paella and casserole. 🍝🧀 is lasagna with cheese, an old order: Wikipedia cites a chronicle of 1284 that mentions lagana cum caseo, Latin for just that.
Lasagna or lasagne
In Italian, lasagne is the plural: more than one sheet of lasagna. By Wikipedia, northern Italy uses the plural for the baked dish and the south the singular. British English took the first spelling and American English the second.
Wikipedia traces lasagna to Italy in the Middle Ages. Its oldest known written mention is a ballad of 1282.
Questions and answers
Is there a lasagna emoji?
Not by that name. Unicode's emoji list, version 18.0, has no emoji named lasagna or lasagne, and CLDR has neither word. 🍝🥘, Spaghetti then Shallow pan of food, is the stand-in on this page.
Is there a pasta emoji?
One. 🍝 Spaghetti is the only emoji CLDR files under pasta, and 🍜 Steaming bowl the only one under noodle. No emoji shows a flat sheet of pasta, the first sense Wiktionary gives for lasagna.
Which emoji go with lasagna?
The ones for what Wikipedia lists in the dish: 🧀 for the cheese, 🍅 for the tomato in a ragù, 🥩 for its beef and 🥚 for the eggs in northern pasta dough. Nothing is filed under oven, so 🔥 is this page's pick.
How do you type lasagna in text?
In layers. |=~=~=| is a slice on its side, with = for each sheet and ~ for the sauce. The ASCII slice stacks three sheets under a line of cheese, and ≡ is three layers in one character.

How this list was compiled: Built on 2026-10-13 from sources read that day. The emoji, their names, code points and Emoji version numbers are from the Unicode emoji list, version 18.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/emoji/emoji-test.txt); emoji names are the CLDR short names printed in that file. Search words are from the CLDR English annotations (https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotations/en.xml and https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/annotationsDerived/en.xml). Unicode has no emoji named lasagna: no emoji name in that list, no CLDR search word or name and no character name in UnicodeData.txt, version 18.0.0 (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt) holds lasagna or lasagne. CLDR files pasta under Spaghetti alone, casserole under Shallow pan of food alone, noodle under Steaming bowl alone, tomato under Tomato alone, meatball under Falafel alone, wheat under Bread alone and cheese under four emoji; it files nothing under oven, layer or spinach. Unicode's second names for Shallow pan of food (paella, casserole) are from NamesList.txt (https://www.unicode.org/Public/18.0.0/ucd/NamesList.txt). Character names are in sentence case. Unicode data is used under the Unicode terms of use (https://www.unicode.org/terms_of_use.html). What lasagna is, its spellings, its kinds, the pasta shapes and the dates 1282 and 1284 are restated from Wikipedia: Lasagna (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasagna) and Lasagnette (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lasagnette), both CC BY-SA 4.0.
