Soups are a favorite to work on since they span such a wide variety of flavor profiles and offer so many opportunities for optimization. For canned soups, flavors can be a great solution since retort processing can be harsh and adding dairy commodity ingredients to this type of manufacturing process brings quite a few challenges as well as costs.
