Grace — Jamaica’s Most Trusted Food Brand
Grace Foods has been producing authentic Jamaican and Caribbean food products for over 90 years. Their soup mixes are a pantry staple in Caribbean households worldwide — fast, reliable, and built on flavour profiles developed from generations of Caribbean cooking tradition. The Pumpkin Soup Mix is one of their most popular lines, delivering a genuinely satisfying result with minimal effort.
Caribbean pumpkin soup differs from standard pumpkin soup in its spice profile — thyme, scallion, scotch bonnet undertones, and the herbal warmth of Caribbean seasonings give it a depth that the plain butter-and-cream versions lack. It’s a soup you can eat as a light lunch or bulk up with dumplings, yam, or sweet potato for a full meal.
How to Prepare
- Follow pack instructions — typically: dissolve mix in hot water and simmer for 5–8 minutes.
- For a richer result, use half water and half coconut milk.
- Add a pinch of scotch bonnet powder for authentic heat.
- Serve with crusty bread, Caribbean dumplings, or soda crackers.
Serving Suggestions
- Bulk up with boiled yam, sweet potato, or dumplings for a full Caribbean meal
- Add a tin of coconut milk for a richer, creamier result
- Pair with Scotch Bonnet Sauce on the side for heat
