This Soup Advent Calendar Has Gone Viral On TikTok

From cheese to jewellery to stationery, you can get an advent calendar for just about anything nowadays. But one edible calendar in particular has piqued the attention of TikTokers this year: a culinary gift box filled with Italian soup mixes. So where can you find the viral soup advent calendar? 

Cerreto’s Soup Advent Calendar Is Trending

The soup advent calendar you’re seeing all over TikTok comes from Cerreto, an organic agri-food company which sells herbs, spices, legumes, grains and more. Created by Cerreto for American store World Market (a food, homeware, furniture and gift shop), it’s back for the second year running after proving a hit in 2024.

This is not your conventional 25-window calendar; instead it’s filled with 12 vegan soup mixes to mark the 12 days of Christmas. Each mix is made with premium organic ingredients, which you need to combine with water to create a warming, tasty soup in just five minutes. Soups on offer include tomato bisque, pasta and chickpeas, porcini mushroom, spiced red lentil, and quinoa and broad beans. 

All ingredients come from Cerreto’s Italian farm in the Emilia-Romagna valley. Founded in 1976, the brand was a pioneer in organic produce, and sustainability has always been a key part: the carbon neutral farm is powered 50 percent by renewable energy and everything is packaged in recyclable materials. 

Can You Get It In The UK?

Bad news for British soup fans: the advent calendar is sold exclusively at World Market, which unfortunately doesn’t ship to the UK. But if you live in America, it’s available both in-store and online at worldmarket.com, titled the Ceretto Organic 12 Days of Italian Soups Gift Box 12 Pack.

We’ve scoured the net for other soup advent calendars, and unfortunately can’t find any on this side of the pond. However, there are plenty of other edible calendars on offer alongside the classic chocolate – check out our top picks.
