Imagine a table full of diverse, homemade soups, and a circle of friends sharing tastes, stories, and warm memories. Hosting a soup swap is a fun, interactive way to bring people together, swap recipes, and keep the winter chill at bay. Our blog will walk you through five simple steps for hosting a successful fall soup swap — plus, some must-have products to make it extra special.


1. Plan Your Soup Menu & Invitations Soup Swap

Start by inviting friends with a recipe list—encourage a variety of soups like hearty stews, creamy purees, or spicy chilli. You can suggest making enough for a couple of bowls to share. Use cute themed invitations from Amazon to set the cozy tone. Make sure everyone confirms their soup, so the table remains diverse and delicious.

2. Create a Beautiful & Functional Soup Bar

Set up a stunning display of all the soups in fall themed pots, chic soup pots or slow cookers like the Nesco Crock-Pot. Use festive bowls and ladles, available on Amazon, to serve. Don’t forget to include toppings like croutons, shredded cheese, chopped herbs, and a variety of breads or crackers—perfect for customizing each bowl.

3. Set Warm & Inviting Atmosphere

Make your space warm using soft lighting like candles or string lights. Play a low playlist of autumn or jazz tunes. Use fall-themed tablecloths and decorations, like faux leaves or mini pumpkins, to craft that inviting, seasonal vibe. These small touches turn your gathering into a true fall celebration.

4. Organize a Recipe & Swap Station

Create a space where guests can write down or display their soup recipes. Use chalkboard signs or recipe cards to keep everything organized. Encourage everyone to swap not just their soups but also their favorite tips and tricks—this should be fun and interactive, not just a tasting!
