What it is

Guava puree is made from ripe guavas, a tropical fruit native to Mexico and Central America. The fruit is typically washed, pitted, and then blended or pureed to create a smooth consistency. It retains much of the fruit's natural flavor and nutrients.

Why it's used

Guava puree is used to add a distinct tropical flavor and natural sweetness to a variety of foods and beverages. It is commonly found in fruit juices, nectars, smoothies, ice creams, yogurts, and baked goods. Manufacturers use it as a natural flavoring agent and sometimes as a thickener.

Health notes

Guava puree is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated guavas and their components, but no specific ADI is set for guava puree itself. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Guava puree is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
