5.0 Fantastic combination of two flavors!

by Erica from Savannah, Ga on Feb 25, 2009

It's a great combination of two flavors; a perfect layer of rich dark chocolate with the sweet fruit of guava. It's not too sweet, just perfect!

5.0 Amazing

by Sarah from Columbus, Oh on Jan 27, 2009

We first had these chocolates in Costa Rica an I fell in love with them. I brought bags back for sorority sisters, and now it is a staple sweet snack for all of us. You are guaranteed to love this!

4.0 Fruity to the max

by Chloe Chocoholic from London on Jul 24, 2008

The fruit jelly is wonderfully flavorful and fresh-tasting. The chocolate is the perfect complement. I also love the packaging - resealable bags, or nice tins with an inner lid. I find these perfect as a little chocolate delight after dinner - light, and you can just have a few and know the rest will keep well til another day.

Chocolate Connoisseur

Guava is one of the most gregarious of fruit trees, growing in many places around the world and almost universally known by its common English name. Known as guayaba in Spanish, the small fruit is thought to have originated near southern Mexico and throughout Central America.

Of the fruit’s more than 150 varieties, one is commonly known as the Costa Rican guava. White, fragrant flowers precede the round, yellow-skinned fruit. Inside, the flesh of the guava is highly acidic and naturally high in pectin, which is perfect for jelly making. Known for its strong, sweet fragrance, the flavor of the fruit is reminiscent of strawberry and pear.

In Costa Rica, Guayabitas are a traditional candy. We coat the prized guava jelly in premium dark chocolate, creating one of the finest samples of this locally loved sweet treat.
