A thick purée made from guava fruit is called Iberia Guava Paste. Although it is dense and rigid, like to fruit leather, it is nevertheless pliable and cuts easily with a knife.VERSATILE USES: It pairs well with cheese, cream cheese, or cheddar. In Cuba, pairing cheese with guava paste is a customary way to cap off a meal. It can also be added to baked items as a filler.HEALTHY FRUIT: Eucalypts are linked to guavas. If the fruit is not fully ripe, its thin peel may cause your mouth to pucker, but a 100g serving of it contains seven times the daily recommended amount of vitamin C.
