I was afraid of this being too thin so I added on 2 cups 1/2 & 1/2 and My store was out of Pear Nectar so I used 4oz pear juice and 2 containers pear babyfood. And it did not turn out too sweet. No one in my family liked it except me and I only thi=ought it was ok. I added cayenne pepper to the first bowl I had and it was still ok. My second bowl I added a cinnamon/sugar mixture and it was much better.

Found soup too thin and sweet as well. May play around with proportions to come up with a thicker, heartier soup.

I made this as a first course for Thanksgiving. Everyone loved it---this is a VERY simple, elegant soup to make. Because it is so rich, we think this is definitely a "sipper" soup--couldn't imagine eating a whole bowl! The pear garnish is a must.

While the combination of pear and pumpkin sounded appealing I found that this soup missed the mark. It was too sweet and there was not enough pumpkin flavor. I think that the soup is improved by using more savory flavors to offset the sweetness from the pear nectar.
