The “Snowy” Crunch of Christmas

Gulio (or Goliolas) are the unsung heroes of the Mangalorean Kuswar hamper. These small, distinctively hard and crunchy rice marbles are a testament to traditional patience and skill. Made from a blend of rice flour and rich coconut milk, they are fried until crisp and then lovingly coated in a thick, snowy-white sugar syrup that dries into a sweet, frosted shell.

A Nostalgic Favorite Often affectionately called “teeth-breakers” by the elders, Gulio are famous for their satisfyingly hard snap and melt-in-the-mouth sweetness. They look like little snowballs on your serving platter, adding a festive white contrast to the golden Nevries and brown Kulkuls.

Why they are a Kuswar essential:

  • Texture: Unique hard crunch that stands out among softer sweets.

  • Festive Look: The sugar coating gives them a “winter wonderland” appearance.

  • Shelf Life: These sturdy sweets stay fresh throughout the holiday season, making them perfect for gifting.
