Where to find ingredients
Mozzarella cheese is widely available in the dairy section of most supermarkets.

If fresh guava is available, it can be used to make a homemade paste, though this is more time-consuming.
Preparation method
- Cut the mozzarella into small cubes
- Cut the guava paste into small cubes
- In a bowl, gently mix the cheese and guava paste cubes
- Use immediately as a filling for pastels
