About Pastry, Pastelitos de Guava (guava pastries)
Pastelitos de guava are a beloved Latin American pastry, especially in Cuban and Puerto Rican bakeries: squares or turnovers of flaky puff pastry filled with thick, sweet guava paste, often alongside a little cream cheese. Baked until golden and sometimes brushed with a sugar glaze, they are a fixture of the display case with morning coffee.
Per 100 grams a guava pastelito provides about 379 calories, with roughly 19 grams of fat, around 5 grams of protein, 48 grams of carbohydrate and about 17 grams of sugar. The flaky pastry accounts for most of the fat, while the guava filling supplies the sweetness along with a little fiber, near 2 grams per 100 grams. A single pastry weighs around 50 grams, coming to roughly 190 calories.
Like most laminated-pastry sweets, the buttery dough makes these richer than their modest size suggests, so the fat and sugar add up quickly. They are a genuine treat — best enjoyed fresh and warm, one at a time, as they are meant to be.
