More Than Just Soup

Wholesome Crave is the only soup brand that is literally chef crafted. Our culturally authentic recipes are more craveable with more versatile applications because we work with an unparalleled network of award-winning chefs that starts with our founder, four-time James Beard Award winning Chef Michel Nischan. Our Impact Board is comprised of some of the most successful and culturally-expert chefs in America working toward a more equitable, just, and sustainable food system. 

All Wholesome Crave products are made with only clean, plant-based ingredients packed with flavor and nutrients. Our secret to naturally thickened soups lies in our use of masa harina with just a touch of corn starch - that means zero slurries, gums, or artificial thickeners. Our recipes are also lower in sodium, organic where possible, and use no added sugars, so you can feel good knowing your menu will satisfy everyone’s craving!
