pizza topping

Scattered over cheese

A pizza topping is any ingredient placed on top of the pizza crust and sauce before baking.

Common toppings include cheese, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, and peppers, though regional variations abound.

The phrase often appears in plural: What toppings do you want on your pizza?
