The Toppin Monsters are group of enemies in Pizza Tower, consisting of Mushroom Monster, Cheese Monster, Tomato Monster, Sausage Monster and Pineapple Monster, their leader. The Toppin Monsters are a group of Toppin-themed creatures that lurk throughout Don't Make A Sound. Each of them are based on a different type of Toppin.
When a Patroller sees the player, it will begin a countdown. If the countdown reaches zero, or if the player curses while a patroller is onscreen, any Toppin Monsters in the room will activate and begin chasing the player. If the player is caught even on invincibility frames, they get jumpscared and sent to the beginning of the room. Getting jumpscared ends any combo and also turns Peppino into an animatronic. The player loses points rapidly while in this state. Toppin Monsters also have the ability to break Outlets by walking into them if Peppino Escapes the room the next one that breaches 0 will awake the next monster.
Mushroom Monster is a lanky robotic-looking animatronic that is entirely brown and only wears a pair of gloves.
Behaviour
Mushroom Monster chases the player with average speed. Due to its tall height, it can't get through most obstacles. It is locked on the ground, and cannot catch the player if they are in the air or on a wall. It is also able to break Outlets.
Appears in
Don't Make A Sound
Trivia
Mushroom Monster originally would wander around and start the chase after spotting the player. It would also throw hands to try to hurt the player.
Cheese Monster looks somewhat like a demented Cheeseslime, with its eyes being much smaller than its eyeholes and its mouth always appearing wide open. It also has two orange arms that it crawls around with.
Behaviour
Cheese Monster chases the player with average speed. It has the ability to invert gravity at it's will, effectively jumping and allowing it to more effectively pursue Peppino. Though contrary to popular belief, they are NOT able to pass through narrow gaps or through terrain, however in appears to do so in certain places where monster solids (collision objects for Toppin Monsters) are not placed. It can also pass through Outlets.

Trivia
Cheese Monster originally would wander around and start the chase after spotting the player.
In one of the backgrounds in Don't Make A Sound, Cheese Monster is referred to as "Stretcher".

Tomato Monster is a small puppet with a red body, a clown-like nose, and red cheeks. It wears a red shirt with a green collar, buttons, and shoes, as well as a pair of white gloves.
Behaviour
Tomato Monster flies towards the player, passing through all walls and objects. In some rooms, possibly due to bugs, it can jumpscare the player in seconds after Patrollers activate without the need to touch the player. This glitch can be a nuisance to deal with.

Don't Make A Sound
Trivia
Originally, Tomato Monster would try to teleport around the room, trying to intentionally get the player to touch it.
Sausage Monster is a monster resembling a butcher, with its outfit looking like that of one, with a blue apron and a white shirt and pants underneath, as well as a pair of brown shoes and blue gloves. Its head is a sausage with bloodsauce spewing out of it and its arms are a similar red color to that of the sauce.
Behaviour
Sausage Monster chases the player with very fast speed. Like the Mushroom Toppin Monster, it is also locked onto the ground and is also able to break Outlets.
Appears in
Don't Make A Sound
Trivia
Based on a poster in one of the backgrounds in Don't Make A Sound, it is implied that the Sausage Monster was a regular butcher before being decapitated and having his head replaced with a sausage.
In the game files, Sausage Monster is referred to as "hillbilly".
Pineapple Toppin Monster would instead be originally a normal Pineapple Toppin, that regularly turns towards the player and grin. After Pizza Time starts, it would then take forms of other Toppin Monsters.
Pineapple Monster might be based on singer Elvis Presley or the character Flabber from Big Bad Beetleborgs.

Trivia
Each Toppin Monster would originally spawn after the player gets the Toppins of same type. Then they would start to wander around the building. Mushroom and Sausage Toppin Monsters would traverse between floors by getting to the end of each floor, while Tomato and Cheese Toppins were able to traverse between each room from each floor. If the player gets caught by Toppin Monsters, they lose a life, Peshino was also supposed to be used as a health system. After getting caught without Peshino, the player would get teleported back to beginning of the level. The Toppin Monsters were also much slower.
Rarely, when the player is caught by a Toppin Monster, an image depicting Peppino, Mushroom Toppin Monster, and Tomato Toppin Monster celebrating Oktoberfest appears in place of a jumpscare, complete with high-pitched stock yodelling rather than a scream. The player still gets turned into Peshino, however.
During June 2022, an idea was brought up of 3D being used in game with prerendered models, ideas were brought up such as the spinning rat in the bg of Pizzahead's fight, a 3D attack for Pizzahead, or 3D Jumpscares for Don't Make a Sound. Out of these only the jumpscares got far, as they were nearly complete, but because of artstyle consistency concerns they were never added in the final release.
On May 26th, 2023, Orca, the original creator of the jumpscare models, has released them to the public and can be found here.
The Toppin Monsters are referred to as chasing monsters in the description of the "And this... is my gun on a stick!" Chef Task.
Despite increasing the combo when killed, the Toppin Monsters do not contribute to the Super Taunt.
