Atreyapuram Dry Fruit Pootharekulu

Known as the “paper sweet” of Andhra Pradesh, Pootharekulu is an age-old delicacy that traces its origins to the quaint village of Atreyapuram, where tradition, patience, and purity come together in every sheet of sweetness. 

At Andaal Home Foods, we carry forward this heritage by handcrafting every Pootharekulu the way it was made for generations — thin, crispy, and irresistibly filled with jaggery and premium dry fruits.

Each sheet of our Pootharekulu is prepared using rice batter spread into ultra-thin layers on an inverted pot, sun-dried to perfection, and then layered with rich fillings of cashews, almonds, pistachios, and ghee. The artistry is in the balance — neither too sweet nor oily, but just the right harmony of taste, aroma, and texture.

Our recipe stays true to the Atreyapuram tradition, but with Andaal’s touch — pure ingredients, hygienic preparation, and the heart of home cooking. We never use preservatives, food colors, or artificial flavoring. Every bite carries the natural sweetness of jaggery, the crunch of roasted nuts, and the comfort of a sweet made with care.

Whether it’s for festivals, gifting, or a moment of indulgence after a meal, Andaal’s Dry Fruit Pootharekulu is more than a sweet — it’s a slice of Telugu pride. It’s a memory of Ammamma’s kitchen, a taste of family love, and a tribute to the craftsmanship that defines Andhra sweets.

Each Pootharekulu is carefully folded by skilled home chefs who’ve mastered the art of paper-thin wrapping — ensuring you experience the same authenticity that made Atreyapuram world-famous.
