Dari's
We felt that DARI’S really gets across who we are. We’re not a big corporate company, we’re a local family, and we wanted to tell our story! Dari is the heart of our home, our kitchen, and our soups, so there’s no better name than hers! You can read about our family here.
We are an Australian family-owned company. We make our nourishing soups to give comfort and care, just like we do for our own family! You can read our story here.
Our comforting soups are made the small-batch way, just like we make them at home to feed our family. Our customers like to tell us that our soups are ‘just like Mum’s’ (or even better!) which means the world to us! We hope that when you eat our soups you feel cared for and nourished.
DARI’S Soups are made in small batches here in Australia, in our kitchen in Marrickville, New South Wales.
Products
Our soups are fresh and therefore need to be stored in the refrigerator ( 0 to 4°c). Once the lid is opened, consume within two days.
We don’t recommend freezing our fresh soups as it might alter the quality. Our soup containers are also filled to the top, so if you freeze the soup in our pot, the lid will pop off due to the liquid expanding as it freezes.
Our soup containers keep your soup safe and secure until you’re ready to eat. To open, simply press down on the ‘OPEN’ tab, then just lift the lid off.
All our soups can be served cold straight from the pot if that’s how you like them, as all the ingredients inside are cooked and only need warming to enjoy as a hot meal. We might release limited edition soups in Summer that are made to be served chilled, such as Gazpacho, so keep a look out for our ‘serve-cold’ varieties.
Our soups are generously portioned, made for one hungry person or to share between two as a lighter meal. They’re a great size for the dinner table, as you can easily serve everyone’s favourite soup.
