Topping 

Topping something you put on top of food to make it look nicer or taste better. a layer of food poured or spread over a base of a different type of food to add flavor. a pizza with extra toppings
Examples from the Corpus topping
• On pasta, it means tomato-based sauces instead of cream-based toppings.
• vanilla ice cream with a chocolate topping
• The ones described here are the coffee creamers, toppings, and margarine.
• Cream of the crop: custard topping adds a crafty touch to Pear tart.
• The detritus is deposited in a bag and the water re-circulated, so no topping up is required.
• You may add other toppings if you wish, but always use refried beans as the base.
• Disadvantage: regular topping up is essential.
• The pizza will cook, the crust will set, the toppings will soften, and the sauce will thicken.
• Spoon the toppings on to the toasts, arrange the prosciutto over the tomato topping and serve at once, garnished with the basil.
