I am trying to replace refined sugar with pure Kithul treacle for an Ayurvedic wellness diet. Where can I find 100 percent unadulterated Kithul in the Kandy area without it being mixed with cane sugar.

Finding 100% pure Kithul in supermarkets is difficult because many commercial brands mix it with sugar syrup to cut costs. The best place in Kandy is the local village collectives or the Hela Bojun food stalls, which strictly source from local farmers. Pure Kithul has a slight woody, smoky flavor and is thinner than commercial pancake syrup.

If you visit a spice garden in Matale (just north of Kandy), they often sell pure Kithul jaggery and treacle in their pharmacies. Just be prepared to pay a premium tourist price for it.
