As you enter a world of timeless taste that is deeply rooted in tradition, Atreyapuram Bites extends to you an open welcome to enjoy it here. The origin of our signature item, Pootharekulu, can be traced back to the town of Atreyapuram, which is located in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Using a method that has been used for hundreds of years, the delicacy known as Pootharekulu has been able to withstand the passage of time because it is produced with great care.
According to popular myth, this delectable confection was the result of a straightforward act of creativity. A woman from the village came up with a creative method to blend leftover rice starch with sugar and ghee, resulting in the creation of a flavorful treat that would soon captivate taste buds all over the world. Crafting exquisite rice flour wrappers packed with a wonderful blend of sugar and ghee, the villagers of Atreyapuram developed the art of making these wrappers, which eventually became a mainstay in households and a source of pride for the neighborhood.
The word “Pootharekulu”, which means “coated sheet or paper sweet” in Telugu, is a good way to describe the tiny layers that are present in this dessert. At present, the production of Pootharekulu has evolved into a cottage industry in Atreyapuram. This enterprise provides financial support for hundreds of households and maintains a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation.
Atreyapuram Bites takes great satisfaction in preserving this illustrious history and offering it to your doorstep in a way that is convenient for you. Every mouthful of our Pootharekulu allows us to take you on a journey through time and give you a taste of tradition, both of which we are thrilled to share with you.
