Treats Icon
The sole use of Treats (
) (sometimes called food) is to level-up Monsters. The specific amount required depends on the complexity of the Monster. More information can be found on the Feeding page.
When a Monster is leveled up, many beneficial things happen. This makes treats valuable and mandatory to progress in the game. Leveling up increases the income rate, the ability to make Monsters breed (level 4), the ability to be teleported to The Colossingum (level 5), the ability to be placed on other Islands through teleportation (level 15), the ability to produce Bonus Items (level 16), and the ability to be Transposed (level 18).
Treats can also be used to feed your Monster on Tribal Island, although it is possible to use Coins or Shards to do the same thing too.
Even though baking high amounts of treats may not be good for your in-game wallet, doing so can prove itself useful, as leveling up Monsters can have the following benefits:
- Increases Monster income rates.
- Enables Monsters to Breed.
- Allows Monsters to be placed on Gold Island.
- Allows Teleportation, and thus the ability to send Monsters to places like Shugabush Island, The Colossingum, Ethereal Island, Mythical Island, Magical Sanctum, Seasonal Shanty, or Ethereal Islets.
- Allows Transposition, enabling to go to Magical Nexus or Paironormal Carnival.
- Allows players to receive a Bonus Item of 10,000
from Monsters that can produce Bonus Items.
As such, producing good quantities of treats will help you to develop your Monster archipelago, even with the high costs that constant baking demands. You might think of Food Production as a long-term investment, which pays off in the Monsters' higher coin production.
Producing Treats is also an excellent way to gain XP (
). Normally you will receive 1 for every 2 
spent on Treat production, however this is different for some Seasonal Snacks:
- New Year Cake, Box of Chokkolits and Dyed Pancakes give 1 for every 1.5 .
- Dumplings give 1 for every 5.33 .
- Spaghetti Dinner gives 1 for every 0.75 .
- Clover Shake gives 1 for every 4.04 .

Treats are primarily produced in a Bakery by using coins only, but they may also be given when:
- Rewarded by certain Goals.
- Won as a prize in the daily Spin Wheel.
- Randomly produced by Wublins and Celestials.
- Produced by the Nexus Nucleus.
- Purchased using real-world money from the Market or the official My Singing Monsters Web Shop.
- Randomly collected from monsters of level 16 or above as a Bonus Item (it is invisible until the Monster's main currency is collected).
The types of treats available to bake depend on the size/level of the Bakery. Note that the amount of treats earned is proportional to the coins it costs, with every 10 coins giving 1 treat

*Everytime a new Bubble Pastry is baked, it will randomly take the stats of another existing Seasonal Snack obtained from the Large Bakery. Note that this only happens once the player has moved to another island. Attempting to bake a Bubble pastry in another Large Bakery while still on the same island that you last baked one without leaving will result in the stats being the exact same.
The snacks the Bubble Pastry can copy are the following;
- Dumplings
- Spaghetti Dinner
- Clover Shake
- Golden Eggs
- Fruit Skewers
- Instant Noodles
- Licorice DNA
- RAINB-O
- Bark Burger
- Bento Puzzle Box
- Witch Fingers*
- Tamale*
- Casserole*
- Figgy Pudding*
*These snacks were released after the last Bubble Pastry availability, so they have yet to be copied.
Attempting to rebake the Bubble Pastry will result in it baking with the stats and cost of the snack it is currently going to copy, and not what it just copied last.
Assuming that all of the snacks listed above are equally likely to be copied, if one were to calculate the average of the 13 possible values for cost, Treats produced, XP produced and time taken, the Bubble Pastry:
- costs on average 10,937,777.77
- yields on average 1,457,008.54
- gives on average 5,318,119.62
- takes on average 58.06 hours to bake
Strategy[]
All non-Seasonal items in the Bakery (exceptions include Spaghetti Dinner & Licorice DNA) converts the same amount of Coins to Treats. It is recommended that you look through the "Efficiency" table below and look what's best at what you're doing, while considering the price. Remember, for the coin per treats ratio section, the lower the better! The same goes for experience!

As for strategy for spending your food as well as possible, there are too many variables — including your own playing style — to give simple rules that will work for everyone. A few things to consider:
- All 2-Element Natural Monsters produce coins more quickly, and can hold more coins before they reach their limit, than any 1-Element Monster, and both of those kinds of Monsters need the same amounts of food to level up. It, therefore, makes sense to level up your 2-Element Monsters before your 1-Element Monsters.
- The food needed to increase a Monster's level doubles with every level, while its earning rate and maximum coin amount only go up by about the same amount with each level. (Technically, it's an exponential increase vs. a linear increase.) Therefore, the relative benefit per level decreases with each level. So for comparable Monsters, it's generally good to keep them at about the same level.
- Some Monsters produce coins quickly but have small coin maximums; others produce coins more slowly but can hold large amounts of coinage. If you're playing the game very frequently, so the Monster aren't reaching their coin limits before you collect, you should level up the quick-producing Monsters first. If you're only playing occasionally, so the Monsters are reaching their limits between your visits to the game, you should level up the Monsters that can hold more first.
Notwithstanding the above, a decent rule of thumb is to breed 3-Element Monsters as soon as possible, not feed 1- and 2-Element Monsters beyond Level 4 (so they can breed), and harvest coins frequently, reinvesting them in baking then feeding your 3-element Monsters to Level 9 or 10, to maximize coin production in the early stages of the game.
Baking Distribution[]
While at first glance, it may be assumed that always baking the largest possible treat, such as a Cake or Big Salad is the best option, for many players it may be better to opt for a different strategy to get treats in the smallest amount of time.
Multiple bakeries can achieve the same or greater rate of production with smaller valued treats compared to a single bakery with one high valued treat. The most efficient strategy would be to calculate the amount of coins you plan to spend on food, and divide that by the number of bakeries you own. This way, all of your bakeries will be running, and will take an overall lower time to complete. For example, 10 pies baking across 10 bakeries will only take 12 hours to finish, whereas one cake baking in one bakery will take 48 hours, or two days to complete.

Notes[]
- The Treats icon was replaced in version 2.0.0 (), with the original being, ().
- Treats can make Monsters larger in size, as seen in the picture. Each Mammott represents each different size. The one on the bottom left is for Levels 1-3, then the next one is Levels 4-9, then Levels 10-14, then Level 15-20 (level 20 is the maximum level).
- During the week of American Thanksgiving Day from 2013 to 2015, Turkeys gave 200,000 Treats instead of 100,000 Treats. This puts it as a cost-to-treat ratio of 5 rather than the usual 10.
- Big Salad first appeared in Version 2.1.3. It was the only treat not to appear on the original release.
- When Big Salad was first mentioned on Facebook, many people were commenting about how inefficient Big Salad is compared to Cake, as prior to Version 3.3.0, its cost was still 10,000,000, but it gave 750,000 Treats, instead of the 1,000,000 one might expect from the pattern of the other Treats (always 1/10th of the Cost), making the Big Salad almost exclusively only reasonable for very high level players who have such a high Coin income that just baking Cakes causes all their Bakeries to be busy with nowhere else to spend their Coins.
- According to episode 1 of My Singing Monsters: Fandemonium, some of the food in the Monster World is made from Smunkins, such as pies, cookies, pizza, etc.
- Speaking of pizza, the said episode mentions that the monsters' excrements are used in pizza.
- It was mentioned on Twitter that the Turkey that comes from the bakery is plant-based.
- It's likely that the Big Salad is a reference to the Seinfeld episode of the same name, "The Big Salad".
- Treats and Wildcards are the only forms of currency that are not used to purchase anything from the Market or StarShop.
- Seasonal Snacks were first introduced in Version 4.6.2, they debuted during Crescendo Moon 2025 with the New Year Cake and Dumplings, they are the first treats to be Limited Time.
- The Box of Chokkolits may be a reference to PongPing's description, which says, "Life is like a music box of Chokkolits... wait, why are there Chokkolits in a music box? What a mess! Oh well, let's get started on clean-up."
- The Spaghetti Dinner currently has the most efficient XP-to-coin ratio at 0.75 coins per XP earned, or about 1.33 XP per coin.
- The Bark Burger currently has the most efficient treat-to-coin ratio at 3.5 coins per treat earned, or about 0.2857 treats per coin.
- The Golden Eggs are actually based on a scrapped earlier version of the Relic currency.
- The Instant Noodles take 1 day to bake, despite being referred to as instant.
