yeah I’m not confident I’d trust a cup like that in my bag if I’m being totally honest. But i guess if its frozen its less likely to be a disaster.

I used to freeze things in ice cube trays (small amounts), large muffin trays (lump or disc), or in Chinese food containers/glass containers (full serve).
If you froze soup in muffin trays and popped the frozen blocks out into a big ziploc in the freezer, you could pull out however many and quickly defrost them in a pyrex jug in the microwave while you got ready. Then pour it into a proper secure thermos and chuck a bread roll in a brown paper bag.
My mum’s recipe for pumpkin soup is frying onion and garlic in olive oil, adding water + 1-2 stock cubes depending on size, then simmering the chunks of pumpkin and blending it. Pretty cheap version. Also consider cockaleekie soup, or chicken or beef soup padded out with veg and barley.

You can get Smash soup cups and they are super leak proof but if you are worried you can put the cup in a large zip lock bag.

yeah that might be the way to do it.

Get the good ones. The double zip lock bags.

fun fact: reusable breast milk freezer bags don’t have to just be for boob milk. Great for portioning out little side soups.
