Andros Frozen Pink Guava Puree gives pastry and beverage teams a dependable tropical base without the labor of breaking down fresh fruit. The formula runs 90% pink guava to 10% beet sugar, so the guava itself stays in the foreground while a small amount of sugar steadies the flavor. Nothing artificial goes in for color or taste, and the puree arrives frozen and ready to fold into a recipe once it comes up to temperature.


Because it ships frozen and portions out as needed, a kitchen can pull only what a service or batch calls for and leave the rest in the freezer. That makes it practical for both small-batch plating and steady production runs, and it carries the same guava character from one order to the next throughout the year. Both single-unit and bulk or wholesale case formats are available to match whatever volume a kitchen works at.


Culinary Uses

Once defrosted the puree behaves like a smooth, pourable fruit base, which makes it easy to drop into recipes that range from cold and set to shaken and poured. It moves comfortably across these applications:

  • Gelified inserts for entremets and mousses
  • Ice creams, gelatos, and sorbets
  • Glazes, coulis, and fruit-based sauces
  • Fruit pastes, macarons, and chocolate bonbons
  • Cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, and shakes
  • Cheesecake toppings, verrines, and plated dessert components

How It Performs in the Kitchen

Working from a frozen puree takes the guesswork out of fruit quality, since the flavor and color land the same way each time rather than swinging with the season or the ripeness of a fresh delivery. The smooth body blends evenly into a batter, custard, or sorbet base without leaving stray pulp, and it tolerates both cold finishes and gentle warming. For a kitchen that has to repeat a dessert exactly across many covers, that consistency is the main draw.


Flavor and Pairing Profile

Pink guava reads as soft, floral, and clearly tropical rather than sharp or tart. It sits well next to coconut, passion fruit, and lime, where those flavors lift the guava without covering it, and the natural pink tone gives a finished plate or a layered glass a built-in pop of color with no dye involved.


Product Characteristics

The puree is composed of 90% pink guava fruit and 10% beet sugar, with a subtle level of added sugar that balances sweetness and acidity without masking the natural fruit flavor. The texture is smooth, and the color and taste are typical of ripe pink guava. It contains no added coloring or flavoring of any kind.


Sourcing and Production

The fruit is grown in orchards set aside for Andros and picked when it is fully ripe, which is what lets a puree this lightly sweetened still taste like the fruit. Production happens in France, drawing on a long stretch of work the company has put into professional fruit ingredients since 1959.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Andros pink guava puree take to thaw before use?
Thawing time depends on whether you defrost a full sealed unit or a portioned amount. The safest method is moving it from the freezer to refrigeration overnight so it thaws gradually and evenly without warming the surface. If you need it faster, a sealed unit can sit in a cold water bath, but avoid leaving thawed puree at room temperature for extended periods.
Can you refreeze Andros pink guava puree after thawing?
Refreezing a fruit puree after it has fully thawed is generally discouraged because each freeze-thaw cycle can degrade texture and separate the fruit solids from liquid. The better practice is to portion only what a shift or batch will use and keep the rest frozen. If you frequently need small amounts, freezing the puree in measured portions before first use saves waste.
Does pink guava puree need straining before going into a smooth sorbet or cocktail?
A true puree like this one is already smooth, so it typically does not need straining for most applications. Some chefs still pass it through a fine sieve when they want a glass-clear cocktail or an ultra-fine sorbet base free of any micro-pulp. For mousses, glazes, and fillings, straining is usually unnecessary.
How sweet is Andros pink guava puree compared to fresh guava?
The 10% beet sugar pushes it slightly sweeter than raw fresh fruit, which is why it is described as a sweetened puree. That added sugar also supports stability and helps the puree perform in frozen applications where sugar content affects how soft the final product sets. When building a recipe, you may want to reduce other sugar in the formula to account for it.
Will pink guava puree change color once it is plated or mixed into a dessert?
Because the puree relies on natural fruit pigment rather than added color, exposure to air, heat, and acidic ingredients can shift the rosy tone over time. Using it in cold or quickly finished applications helps preserve the fresh hue. Tightly covering exposed surfaces and limiting prolonged air contact also slows any dulling.
