I had a Roman-style pizza with guava paste and cheese recently and wanted to try making it at home. I used this, and it came out exactly how I was hoping. This one is really easy to work with. It comes as a solid block, so it’s easy to cut into pieces without making a mess. I had bought a different brand before that came in a round can, and I actually ended up cutting my hand trying to open it. This feels a lot safer to use. It tastes great and has that perfect sweetness to pair with cheese. It’s also pretty inexpensive, so it feels like a really good value for what you get.

Let's make this as simple as possible. Here are the top four reasons why you need to buy this guava paste today. Plus why it should be your first choice before guava paste from brands like Goya. 1. It's made with only four ingredients; guava pulp being the main one. In the guava paste made by Goya, SUGAR is the main ingredient. There's literally more sugar in Goya's guava paste than there is guava. 2. No artificial colors. But Goya's guava paste actually has THREE fake food colorings added to it (Red number 40, red number 3, yellow number 6. Not a good sign when a company needs three different food colors for something as simple as guava paste. 3. A 14 ounce block of this guava paste is only $1.99 (just 14 cents per ounce). Goya's is 34 cents per ounce (more than double the price). Despite Goya actually having less guava fruit in it. Conchita guava paste comes in at a whopping 53 cents per ounce (about FOUR TIMES the price of Iberia's). Smart buyers can do the math on this one. Why pay two or even four times as much money? 4. Iberia guava paste is natural. They don't add extra sugar. It's vegan-friendly. There's no gelatin in it, so it's both kosher and halal. BONUS PASTRY TIP: When you buy this guava paste, pick up a box of Pepperidge Farm puff pastry dough sheets from the frozen dessert section of the grocery store. You can make the most amazing flaky, sweet Cuban-style pastries with that dough and Iberia's guava paste. Just look up "pastelitos de guayaba" or "guava pastries" for countless fool-proof and easy recipes. Iberia makes the BEST guava paste for pastelitos. HERE'S YOUR NEXT STEP: Add this guava paste to your shopping cart right now. Never mind that it tastes better than all other guava pastes. Or that it's all-natural. And doesn't contain weird extra artificial ingredients. But it's simply the least expensive of all guava pastes on Amazon. It's just smart math to buy this one. So when you're done reading this review, add it to your shopping cart, and check out. You'll get it in as soon as a day. It's only $1.99, so why put off getting it? Order it right now, you'll be glad you did later.

If you like guava, since it is a very difficult fruit to get, this is an excellent alternative. I bake bread and among the types I bake there is one we call sweet bread (pan dulce). This time I tried to bake where I rolled the dough and filled it with this guava paste. The result was beyond my expectations. Now, I incorporated it to my baking routines and call it Pan de Guayaba. It's delicious.
