company. Though he is lighthearted and carefree, Chowder's actions habitually land him in circumstances beyond his control, partly due to his large appetite and absent-mindedness. Mung and his wife Truffles, Mung's rock monster employee Schnitzel, and Chowder's gaseous pet Kimchi all try to aid Chowder in his ambitions to become a great chef, but frequently find themselves undermined by the calamitous antics that ensue. Chowder is also undermined by Panini, a girl who has an unrequited love for Chowder, going so far as to say that he is her boyfriend despite the pair not actually dating.

Nicky Jones): A chubby purple cat-bear-rabbit
hybrid who serves as an apprentice under the chef Mung Daal, Chowder lives with him and his wife, Truffles, in a room at the top of the catering business. Chowder wants to become a great chef, but he is very impulsive and scatterbrained and often gives in to his urges. He has a large appetite and eats anything, even a customer's order. Chowder can also regurgitate objects, and he is used as a storage container by the other characters. According to Greenblatt, he is a composite of a cat, a bear, and a rabbit, and his species was verified in at least one episode. C. H. Greenblatt voiced his adult self in the last episode called "Chowder Grows Up".

Greenblatt said that he initially found difficulty in working on any story with Truffles since the character could be "so abrasive" that the ''Chowder'' staff had to be "a little more sensitive about finding her softer side." Greenblatt said that the staff eventually decided that "a little Truffles goes a long way." Therefore, she would appear occasionally in ''Chowder'' in a manner similar to how

Greenblatt removed the pointy ears since he felt this did not fit in with the rounded shapes in ''Chowder''. Greenblatt did not like characters similar to Angelica and believed that he needed to make Panini "cuter and sweeter".
Greenblatt said that the details of Panini formed when the creator decided that Panini had a crush on Chowder; since Chowder is not old enough to fall in love with females, according to Greenblatt this aspect would frustrate Chowder "in a more fun way".

since endive is bitter and Belgian endive is fancy; hence the character is bitter and fancy.
Ms. Endive's character stayed constant throughout the initial development. The long nose, which changed from a rectangular shape to a triangle shape for the final version, represents how Ms. Endive looks down at other characters. It was revealed in later episodes that Ms. Endive is in love with Shnitzel. Greenblatt said that her evolution throughout the series was fun to observe, especially when William Reiss wrote plots involving Ms. Endive.

He is desperate to get cash and will do almost anything to get it. Despite his unpleasant and boastful attitude to Chowder, Chowder sees him as a close friend, which irritates him even more. Gorgonzola is an apprentice to Stilton, who is a candle holder, hence why both characters have burning candles on their heads.

* Ceviche (voiced by Elan Garfias): A young yellow (and somewhat androgynous) goat apprentice to Paté and Panini's best friend. He practices aerobic-style dancing and is very charitable and kind to others. Because of his admirable attitude, amazing talents, and good looks, he is well-liked. He is good friends with Panini and will make unwanted advances upon her, which are either refused or unnoticed. Ceviche is also a close friend to Chowder. He speaks in a monotone voice and serves as deadpan humor for the show.

'', Greenblatt had been sketching various characters for his own animation series concept.
Greenblatt originally based the premise on the idea of the sorcerer's apprentice style of story, such as ''
The Sword in the Stone''. The plot devices were modified so that the story revolves around a master chef who teaches his young apprentice how to cook. Chowder himself was developed with no specific species in mind, but rather with the intentions of invoking the image of a child's soft squeeze toy.
Some of the inspiration comes from
Dr. Seuss, with other inspiration from

Greenblatt pitched the concept to Cartoon Network in the mid-2000s when he began working as a writer and storyboard artist for ''
The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy'', and two years later the series was approved with another year for production before the pilot episode aired. Greenblatt estimates he spent about seven years working on ''Chowder'' before the show made it to air in 2007.

One of the unusual design features of the show is the patterns used on the clothing or players. The patterns are developed as a full-screen image and then sent to the production house, where the characters are modified to fill the patterns in over the character clothing.
Using this technique, when a character moves, their patterns do not follow, but display as a "static" background. A similar technique was used in the ''

Cancellation
''Chowder'' was canceled by Cartoon Network in August 2009, as the network felt the show did not fit its new demographic of older boys, favoring shows such as the live-action ''
Destroy Build Destroy'' instead. On his blog, C. H. Greenblatt expressed relief about having his schedule freed up by the cancellation, saying: "I didn't really think there'd be this many upsides to having a show officially canceled by a network, but I'm feeling happier than I've been in a long time. Since we've only got post-production, my schedule finally eases up. I haven't had a break like this in a long, long time... ''Chowder'' has opened up a lot of awesome possibilities for me, and creatively I'm feeling more inspired than ever."

Aaron H. Bynum on ''Animation Insider'' wrote, "Featuring brightly colored environments, stylishly matted/fixed background artwork and humorously designed characters with unique personalities to boot, ''Chowder'' is one of the network's largest creative accomplishments in recent years."
