Most of the time my usage of Cream of (whatever) soup is as sauce/gravy
or in a casserole. IOW, it's an ingredient. I've even made "cream of" soups - but that's a LOT of work.
Yes it is. I've made some by scratch, but only when I'm bored and
have a day. :)
Mostly my soups are like chicken noodle - fast and easy. Or can be made
in big batches and frozen for future reference.
I have a few in the freezer now. A Corn chowder, chicken mushroom,
and lots of stock and sunday gravy. ;)

I've never had great success at freezing cream soups. The texture
always seems off when they are thawed and re-heated. The flavour is (usually) OK. But, they seem to have a weird mouth-feel - to me.
Next time (and there will be a next time) I'll use my own meatballs in
a smaller (marble sized) version form the golf-ball sized pre-made I
had on hand. Bv)= There were just enough leftovers for a supper in
the upcoming week.

We haven't noticed that one. However, we don't freeze many cream soups
as we do the others.
