Launches Candles Scented Like Chicken Noodle Soup and Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese

The Campbell's Soup Company has a way for customers to enjoy the smell of its soup without ever stepping foot in the kitchen.

On Wednesday, the brand announced that it was partnering with retailer CAMP to release limited-edition scented candles based on two of its iconic flavors: Chicken Noodle Soup and Tomato Soup (with Grilled Cheese).

For sale now online — and at CAMP stores in New York, New Jersey, Dallas and Connecticut — the limited-edition candles, which retail for $24, replicate the smell of the Campbells classics, giving one's home a cozy, wintery warmth.

The Chicken Noodle Soup flavor features notes of savory chicken, clove, and buttery crackers.

Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese, meanwhile, features notes of roasted tomato, peppercorn, and gooey grilled cheese.

Both candles are also in containers designed after Campbell's stackable snowman soup cans, which made their debut in 2020 and are modeled after the brand's "Snowbuddy" snowman commercial.

In fact, a Snowbuddy keepsake will be revealed as the candle burns, as "a memento for families to cherish their newly made winter memories."

10 percent of net proceeds from total candle sales will be donated to help benefit Feeding America.

They're also offering a free "Winter Warm Up Guide" featuring at-home wintry activities — from DIY crafts and fun games to Campbell's themed recipes. 

 Any Takers?

I'll pass. I don't like the smell of food lingering in the house.

Thanks so much!  Grew up near Camden, where Campbell's use to make the soup.  I love tomatoe soup and just had some yesterday with my salad.  I do not burn candles anymore due to my age but have a "snowman" decoration theme until Valentine's Day.  Will be ordering these.  🍅🥫

No, thank you.  I'm usually tying to eliminate food odors, not introduce them.

A few days ago, I noticed a supermarket had these on sale, 4 / $5.00.  The ad called it a "limited edition" - of course! - but it was actual cans of condensed soup, not candles.

I would use them as a decoration in my kitchen but not burn them.
