Conchita Guava Shells in Syrup 32 oz

Cuban guava shells in syrup — Conchita 32 oz single can

Guava shells (cascos de guayaba) in syrup are the Cuban dessert essential — sweet poached guava halves bathed in their own ruby syrup. The 32 oz size is the catering/restaurant version with roughly double the guava and syrup of the standard 16 oz can. Single can is the right buy for one-time large gatherings or trying the bigger size before committing to a multi-pack.

How Cuban families serve guava shells

1. The classic — plate 2-3 guava halves with a slice of cream cheese and a drizzle of the syrup
2. Cuban pastelitos filling — chop the shells and use as a pastry filling
3. Ice cream topping — drizzle the syrup over vanilla ice cream and top with chopped shells
4. Spoon over Cuban flan or tres leches cake
5. Wedding/event dessert display — guava + cream cheese + Cuban crackers

32 oz single vs Pack of 3 vs 16 oz — which to buy?

32 oz single is right for one-time catering/event use or testing the bigger size. The 32 oz Pack of 3 is the right buy for regular catering/restaurant volume. The 16 oz Pack of 3 is the household standard for typical family use.
