You need to edit the menu with the label "Openbox 3".

To create the "top items" in obmenu, you just need to add a new item directly under the root menu.

~/.config/openbox/menu.xml

<openbox_menu>
    <menu id="root-menu" label="OpenBox 3">
        <separator label="Ephraim"/>
        <item label="URxvt">
            <action name="Execute">
                <execute>
                    urxvt
                </execute>
            </action>
        </item>
        <item label="Firefox">
            <action name="Execute">
