Power Toppings are simply ingredients used to power up Foodons by throwing the items at them. The Purple Pepper, for example, powered up Fruit Turtle. It was easily able to defeat Dim-Sum Deluxe, however the effects of the Power Topping also destroyed Fruit Turtle.
In the games, Toppings work slightly differently in that they can also harm a Foodon when thrown. Check out the list of the games ingredients.
Bistro Recipe[]
In battle, throwing an ingredient at a Foodon that the Foodon is made with will heal that Foodon. Most of the time the status effect
inflicted by ingredients is the same; sugar causes sleep, soup causes
burn, etc., but there are exceptions, such as how sugar inflicts mold
instead of sleep on Ramen. Also, there is always the major exception that any item included in the recipe for a Foodon will heal that Foodon instead of any other possible effect.
Regardless of which Foodon the topping is used on, and whether it would buff or debuff, Power Toppings can miss when thrown.
三位一体[]
Throwing particular Power Toppings at particular Foodons can also give a power-up status called 三位一体Sanmi Ittai. Achieving this status requires balancing the recipe for your Foodon between meat, vegetables, and seasoning. For example: Omerice is made with eggs (meat) and ketchup (seasoning). Throwing green peas (vegetable) at it completes the "trinity", achieving Sanmi Ittai status. In this way, the Topping required will vary between Foodons. The Toppings required to achieve Sanmi Ittai can be found listed on the bottom line of a Foodon's in-game profile, or on its profile on this wiki.
三位一体 Sanmi Ittai is stated in the game to give a "power up", but specifics are not given. At the very least, a damage boost is included in this and there may be other benefits.
