About Guava paste

Guava paste is a thick, sweet confection made by boiling guava fruit with sugar until it forms a smooth, dense consistency. Popular in Latin American and Caribbean cuisines, it is often enjoyed as a dessert spread, paired with cheese, or used as an ingredient in baked goods. Originating from regions rich in guavas, it reflects the tropical flavors cherished in its cultural roots. While guava paste offers the natural benefits of guavas, including vitamin C and dietary fiber, its high sugar content makes it a calorie-dense treat. Moderation is key when incorporating guava paste into a balanced diet. This versatile product can elevate dishes with its unique combination of sweetness and tang. However, those monitoring their sugar intake should be mindful of serving sizes to enjoy its rich flavor responsibly.
