The results of this study show toppings with chocolate as a popular item in orders. These findings can provide valuable insights for food business owners in structuring their menus and determining attractive offers for customers. This study also applied a comparison between the apriori, fp- growth and eclat algorithms, with the result that the best item transaction rule was found: a combination of dill & unicorn toppings with chocolate with 60% confidence.
