What Is Sweet Potato Flour?
Sweet potato flour is made from the roots of Ipomoea batatas, a trailing vine of the morning glory family loved around the world for its sweet, colourful roots. The roots are peeled, sliced, gently dried and milled into a soft flour with a mild, naturally sweet, gently nutty taste.
Sweet potatoes come in creamy white, golden orange and deep purple flesh, so sweet potato flour lets food makers add natural sweetness and beautiful colour to breads, noodles, snacks, drinks and desserts.

Sri Lankan Sourcing and Origin
In Sri Lanka, sweet potato is called bathala, and it is a much-loved root crop grown across the island’s warm, sunny farmlands. Sri Lankans enjoy boiled bathala with fresh coconut and a spicy sambol for breakfast, and cook it into comforting curries and sweet treats.
As a Sri Lankan sweet potato flour supplier, Leafy Ceylon brings this versatile root to international buyers, with carefully selected roots, clean processing and origin details for your brand story.
Harvesting and Processing
We harvest mature sweet potato roots, then wash, peel and slice them and dry them gently to lock in their natural colour and sweetness. The dried slices are packed whole or milled and sieved to an even fineness, and sealed promptly in moisture-protective liners.
