Guavas are often marketed as "superfruits", being rich in vitamins A and C with seeds that are rich in omega-3, omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and especially dietary fiber. A single Apple Guava (P. guajava) fruit contains over four times the amount of vitamin C as a single orange (over 200 mg per 100 g serving) and also has good levels of the dietary minerals, potassium, magnesium, and generally a broad, low-calorie profile of essential nutrients.
Guava fruit has a thin delicate edible rind and the flesh can be pink to red.
This tasty jam is like no other. Guava fruit creates a fragrant, deliciously sweet jam, bursting with flavour. Perfect with cream cheese and fantastic on your toast! Let the flavours seduce your palette.
The thin rind is pale green to yellow at maturity in some species, and pink to red in others. Inside they have a creamy white or orange-salmon flesh with many small hard seeds, and a strong, characteristic aroma that is hard to describe but generally reminiscent of refreshing fruits like apples, passion fruit or strawberries. They have an inoffensive acidity and a pleasant rose-petal fragrance.
