• Gran'ma Flossie is the boss of the Crust. She is best friends with Tom, and the grandmother of Archie and Angel. Her biggest rival is Fred Toppings, the head of Top Toppings, a rival pizza take-out. She is shown to be extremely fit, despite her age. She also admires the Queen, and two times, has attempted to get her to notice the Crust. In "Pizza Passion", it is revealed that Flosse is not so good at sports when she is blindfolded. Her last name is hinted to be 'crust'. She also tends to forget Ellis' name.
• Tom is a young boy, who often is seen with Flossie. She and Tom are best friends and so several things together. He usually attempts to find out the secret ingredient in Flossie's special sauce. He is also revealed to have a desire to run the Crust.
• Archie is a young adult, who is the main pizza chef. He is shown to be extremely vain over his job, and, to be a ladies man. Gran'ma or other characters will call him 'Archibald'. His main desire, is for him and his buddy Ellis to become music stars.
• Ellis is also young adult. Unlike Archie, he is more interested in no longer working for the Crust, despite having a strange relationship with Flosse. He used to have a girlfriend, Melanie, but despite breaking up with her, she still thinks that they are still dating. In the first episode, Ellis was used by Flosse to win the pizza delivery race.
• Angel is a girl, who answers the telephone. She is rude towards the person she is speaking to when she feels like it. In most episodes, Angel gets the last laugh, but in the last episode, it is Archie who gets the last laugh. She is shown to love talking on her Mobile phone.
• Missy is Gran'ma's pet goat. Gran'ma adores Missy, even more than her own staff. Missy usually is first one to get in the trouble in most episodes. Her trademark is farting.
• Jack is one of Gran'ma's delivery crew. He is usually never seen, but is heard, except in "Pizza Problems", where he his body, but not his face, is seen. He usually gets into trouble, by normal or bizzare ways, the latter being more often. His role is usually minor, but in the episodes, "Pizza Potions" and "Pizza Promotion", his role becomes a factor in the main plot. In "Pizza Problems", Jack becomes the central focus of the episode, by leaving the Crust. Despite coming back at the end of the episode, he is never seen, or heard of, again.
• Melanie is a girl who pops up around the Crust. She is the former girlfriend of Ellis, and is shown to still think they are dating. She is also called a psycho by Ellis or the other characters, and appeared up to "Pizza Press", in which she sees Ellis with a take-away critic and thinks he has officially dumped her.
