Srilankan
Culture Crunch
These sweets are made to perfection by the village women of the Kandyan region. We use authentic ingredients carefully hand-picked, selected and sourced to give you a lasting taste of Kandyan hospitality. When you trap the love oozing from Kithul palm trees and hand mix it with rice flour, infuse it with the milk of Coconut, put in a pinch of local spices and swirl in a dash of jaggery and a touch of tradition, you create these gourmet sweets. Whether that is Mung Kawum with the shape of a diamond, or konda kevum with a bump at the top, or kokis – the Dutch cookies with a Lankan twist, or halapa held in the embrace of a banana leaf, these sweets are food for soul. And let’s not forget, the secret ingredient is always love.
Love at First Bite
No function or auspicious time is complete without a basket of Rasa Kevili. Then why should a visit to a friend’s house be complete without it? Packed with care in creatively designed, elegant and stylish jute packets and batik boxes, it makes for a perfect gift. Tradition can never be out of trend.
Sweet Talk
Unforgettable flavours. Roasted and mixed and baked to perfection. Luxurious and bountiful. These sweets of our childhood invoke memories and feelings of nostalgia. Their smell, their taste, their touch is transient but enduring. It is a magic that can’t fade. Their essence has remained in our collective memory…reminding us of our grandmothers and the perfect new year celebrations.
