Chop all vegetables to desired size. In a soup pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, peppers, and carrots. Once tender, add garlic. Cook a couple of minutes, being sure not to brown/burn the garlic. Add both cans of tomatoes, and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat, add basil, pepper, and sugar; stir. Transfer half of the soup to a blender, add whipping cream, and puree until smooth, but not too long as it will get really fluffy! Add back to soup pan, stir well. Heat through but do not boil. Makes about 10 1-cup servings.
