Detailed Product Description

Pink & White Guava Pulp
Guava (from Arawak via Spanish, Guayaba) is a genus of about 100 species of tropical shrubs and small trees in the myrtle family Myrtaceae.
The fruit is edible, round to pear-shaped, from 3-10 cm in diameter (to 12 cm in some selected cultivars). It has a thin delicate rind, pale green to yellow at maturity in some species, pink to red in others, a creamy white or orange-salmon flesh with many small hard seeds, and a strong, characteristic aroma. It is rich in vitamins A, B, and C (a guava fruit contains more vitamin C than a typical citrus fruit the rind contains over five times more vitamin C than an orange). It also contains high amounts of calcium which is unusual in a fruit.
