Equally perfect for gifting, cheese pairing, and baking, this Guava Paste is full of sweet, tropical flair. Portugeuese purveyor Da Morgada cooks down guava with sugar and lemon juice, concentrating those fruity flavors. The result is firm and sliceable, making it an elegant substitute for jam on your cheese board. It’s beautifully packaged in a wooden tray, so add it to a gift box with some of our best cheeses—we'd go for Drunken Goat and Camembert Fermier.
“I love this guava paste because it’s not overly sweet, so it doesn’t overpower the cheese you’re pairing it with. It’s perfect with Murray's Camembert Fermier—the super savory notes are balanced by the tropical sweetness.”

- Made in Portugal, this guava paste is similar to Portuguese marmelada or Spanish membrillo, a traditional fruit paste made from quince.
- This version swaps quince for guava, known for their tart, sweet flavor.
- Guava is native to Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America.
- It’s often eaten fresh or juiced, but guava paste is also a common ingredient in Latin American and Caribbean cooking and baking.
- In addition to serving with cheese, you can use this guava paste tucked into empanadas and other pastries along with fresh, creamy cheese.
