I remember eating this. Guava is really used quite a bit in Puerto Rico and as a Puerto Rican I love this❤️❤️❤️

I LOVE guava paste. Excellent with an aged cheddar. Delicious!

Such a gentle spirit. Happy cooking to you, too, Chef Pepin.

Any Brazilian would love that dessert as it is a popular treat in some states. Jacques is the best. Ps: melted guava paste is also great on top of cheesecake. PS:

Guava swirled cheesecake is my favorite, but you can just make a syrupy topping to spoon over slices of cheesecake instead if you're planning a cheesecake bar for a gathering. My next experiment will be some cream cheese thumbprint cookies with some guava paste.

cheddar should be the appropriate cheese- grew up in St. Thomas, and learned about this snack from my Puerto Rican Math teacher!!! Epic

Knowing one of my biggest kitchen inspirations is still cooking amazing food warms my small little culinary heart. Ive finally made it into a kitchen, and Jaques and many others guided me to where i am! Much love!

Amazing! Happy cooking.

It looks delicious! I've never tried guava paste - but knowing the flavour of guava - I think it would blend well with the pond cake and cream cheese. Thank you, guys.

Thanks Chef Pépin! Looks delicious! 🌿

We have excellent guavas in Pakistan but unfortunately other than fruit salad no local chefs have been creative enough to develop dessert recipes with it. This looks amazing.

My old time favorite.🎉Best cook. 👌

Try cheddar cheese squares, with guava paste and an olive. Skewer them with a toothpick. As an apetizer.

That my friend isn't guava paste! That is guava jell. Real guava paste is gritty, but the jell is smooth and lacks taste. I suggest you make your own. Back in the day it was easily found, but no more.

@@zhargidabeoulve I grew up on the real stuff. Imagine the guava flavor but more intense. In cooking, texture matters. So with the sweetness of the pastry/pound cake and maybe some powdered sugar coupled with that grainy guava it's delish.
