Sinhala and Tamil New Year, or Awurudu, is a time of joy, family reunions, and delicious food. One of the most cherished traditions during this festive season is preparing and sharing Awurudu Kavili—a variety of Sri Lankan traditional sweets made with love and care. From konda kewum (oil cake) to mun kavum, these delightful treats symbolize prosperity and unity.
At Localroots, we take pride in preserving the authenticity of Sri Lanka’s rich culinary heritage. Our Awurudu Kavili operation is designed to bring you the finest kavili hampers and sweets hampers, ensuring you can celebrate Awurudu with traditional flavors, even if you don’t have time to prepare them yourself.
Every year, our team at Localroots collaborates with expert local artisans who have been making Awurudu sweets for generations. We carefully source high-quality ingredients to maintain the authentic taste and texture of each sweet. Our range includes:
• Konda Kavum / Konda Kewum (Oil Cake) – A deep-fried delight with a crispy outer layer and a soft, sweet inside.
• Mun Kavum / Mun Kawum – A crunchy, protein-rich sweet made from mung beans and jaggery.
• Athirasa – A flavorful, deep-fried sweet infused with the richness of treacle and spices.
• Other Awurudu Favorites – Kokis, Pani Walalu, Aluwa, and Dodol, all freshly prepared.
At Localroots, we understand the importance of hygiene and quality in food preparation. That’s why we work with suppliers who follow strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) to ensure that our Awurudu sweets are safe, fresh, and of the highest quality. Every batch is carefully inspected before packaging to maintain the traditional taste and texture.
