A Seasonal Fall Recipe for Sweet Pumpkin Soup

Naturally sweet and creamy pumpkin soup with seasonal fall flavors.
Serve this naturally sweet and creamy pumpkin soup with delicious fall flavors.

Cool and crisp fall evenings call for getting cozy with the warmth and comfort of a big bowl of soup, filled with the natural flavors of the season.


Crafted with canned pumpkin, carrots, celery, honey and a medley of autumnal spices, this Sweet Pumpkin Soup is sure to become your fall go-to. Try it with Busy Bee Honey's raw, fully traceable and exclusively USA-sourced honey. Many products labeled "pure" or "local" can contain blends from multiple sources that make honey untraceable and diluted with additives. However, Busy Bee Raw Honey puts traceability front and center, challenging a common misconception when it comes to honey.


Using the Real Honey Code found on every bottle, you can trace your honey's journey from hive to shelf. Tested three times for purity, each peel-away label reveals when and where the honey was made, bringing its origin story straight to your table.
