Savor a wholesome taste of traditional Sri Lankan heritage with our homemade Helapa (හැලප). Made with organic kurakkan (finger millet) flour, freshly grated coconut, and rich kithul treacle, this sweet delicacy is wrapped in authentic Kanda leaves (Macaranga peltata) and steamed to perfection. The aromatic leaves infuse a unique flavor and herbal fragrance, creating a rustic, earthy treat that perfectly pairs with a warm cup of tea.
