In Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 we call them pastelillos. 🥰 Regardless of how the many ways to call this treat.... we can all agree they are definitely delicious and remind us of home and family... when abuelita would prepare them with lots of love 💓💓

Preppy Kitchen Your recipes are the best, thank you so much for them ! Whenever I bake something I check if you have a recipe for it. I made your cinnamon rolls for my moms birthday a few days ago and the whole family loved them, she’s expecting them every birthday now !
I love the beginning with the call to mom to help with the pronunciation when he's saying it right. I've been waiting for this recipe because in Puerto Rico this is also very popular, but we use confectionery sugar to top it up. Also this was my mom's favorite when she was alive. Thank you for the recipe!
This was also my mom favorite! Every time I go to PR I pick some up for her ! She has dementia now so, I’ve been dying to make it just to be close to her . Thank you so much ❤
I love how all the different countries have shared their pronunciation and flavors! It makes me wish I could travel to all of those amazing places to eat all the things.
I love the guava paste just like that as well. Growing up in a Puerto Rican home we would eat guava with a piece of hard cheddar cheese on a ritz cracker. No judgment it’s delicious. Lol but these pastries that you made are delicious. They are my favorite dessert . My Mom used to make them as well.
Who else wants John to put up affiliated links for the beautiful utensils he uses so we can support this amazing channel and have adorable utensils in our kitchens at the same time? haha
Cup of B I for one would LOVE A COUPLE OF THOSE COPPER PANS. But can’t afford them, so will continue to use the ones that were handed down to me or were bought at yard sales! LOL
This is so close to the recipe I brought when I immigrated from Cuba! Thanks for sharing! In my house we make the pastry from scratch. But in the states I usually buy it premade. This touched my heart. I now reserve these for special occasions and holidays. You’re incredible. Thanks again!
In Trinidad and Tobago we call it guava cheese, make it from scratch and eat it like a snack...yummy. However, using it in this recipe sounds absolutely delicious...love cream cheese and flaky pastry dough...will try it!
I have looked for a handful of different recipes and always come back to this one. The extra additions to the cream cheese definitely a level up on flavor. The only thing I do different is I'm combined this with another recipe where when they come out of the oven you brush them with a simple syrup made of equal parts sugar and water. And then because I'm extra I sprinkle sparkling sugar over the top so it has a glossy crunchy sugar coat. I get these requested all the time when I do potlucks
Ugh, in México we use it too, also with ate de membrillo (quince jelly). My grandpa loved it! I can't eat it, for some reason the thoughts of combining salty cheese with sweet things irks me haha
What is the salty cheese called. Ive never seen this before and American Football is starting soon so I need something to bake for the game. Lets go Buffalo Bills!!
in Brazil we have a similar version of these pastelitos that have the same name (pastelzinhos), the main differences are we don't use puff pastry and we actually deep fry them, but we keep the same filling, my favourite btw
Pastelillos de guayaba!! Favoritos de mi niñez!!!🤗!!- childhood favorites!!!. That residual guava paste eat it with white cheese- casqutos de guayaba con queso blanco de hoja..yummy!!🇵🇷
John, these ARE easy and you make it look easy. As a rare baker, I am making these today and so thankful for your video and tips! They are turning out beautifully and taste amazing! A package of Pepperidge Farms Puff Pastry - not to be confused with Phyllo dough- has 2 sheets and I made 24 pastelitos. Excellent! Thanks for the guidance!
Since you mentioned Argentina in this video.... these pastelitos are very similar to "Pastelitos de Membrillo" which are very common here in my country. The membrillo is a pear/apple-shaped fruit that you can eat directly from the tree but it is hard and taste like nooooothing but when it is transformed into for example jam, you actually want to eat it by the spoonful
I am from Colombia and here is so common to eat Pastelitos de guayaba! Thank you for the recipe, it looks delicious 🤗 I really enjoy watching your videos
I've made these before in the past years ago and they are so delicious. I need to make them again they are so addicting. We call then empanadas de guayaba. My mother is Salvadorian and she also calls them pastellitos and they make some from Plantains stuffed with vanilla filling or black beans and others with beef and veggie similar to the Argentinan. I love guava so much I've made a guava chiffon cake, guava ice cream, these empanadas and guava tamales.
I haven't had these in years and often think of them fondly. I was just thinking of them a couple days ago and looked them up--and now I see them show up on my favorite baking channel! It's definitely a sign. Going to have to make these!
I got to be honest, John kills it in the kitchen. I've tried tons of recipes from online cooks, and it seems that John's recipes are the only ones that always turn out great. His food is amazing, he is amazing, everything is amazing!
I grew up in Mexico City and the bakery near my house will bake this with a variety of fillings. deviled ham, bacalao, and guayaba your recipe brought back a lot of memories. I can't wait to try this delicious recipe thank you❤️❤️
Those look soooo good! Thank you for not only sharing the "how to" vid. Also, thanks for including your Mom. She's such a nice, congenial person, and she's always a pleasure to see and hear. You're fortunate to have her!
Omg!!! I don’t think I’ve ever clicked on a video so fast! Lol I’m half Cuban but live in Texas and it’s so hard to find places that sell pastelitos!!! I’ve always been intimidated to make these because of the puff pastry. But now I don’t have to wait for my parents to bring us boxes from Miami haha I can make them at home!!!! 🎊🍾🎉
Hi! Just as an FYI, Vicky bakery here in Miami will deliver their pastelitos frozen, you keep them in the freezer until ready to use then you just bake them up. Porto's (the famous Cuban bakery in Cali) does that too 😋
@@sushimaster652 oh my goodness Vicky’s!!! Yesss those are my personal favorite from Miami. Wow thank you so much for that info, I would’ve never known!
THANK YOU! My favorite treat!!! I make them and eat them all! Hahaha Those are “pastelillos” to me because I am Puerto Rican, but I know for Cuban they are “pastelitos”. I haven’t read the comments yet, BUT I KNOW for sure that you will get a comment from a Puerto Rican arguing about the name😂😂😂😂 Some can’t understand that we all have different names for the same thing! LOVE YOUR RECIPES!
OMG! John, you made me remember when I was little, my grandma made the dulce de guayaba at home. We had guayaba trees in the orchard in a little town called Bochalema, in Colombia. It was a heavenly smell at home when cooking the jam. So nice you bring this recipe! Thank you!

Just so you know I liked this video before even watching it. As a Cuban, who lives in Canadá and can’t find pastelitos de guayaba anywhere, thank you!!!
John! These are a favorite around my household I can't wait to make these and impress them later on! Thank you for sharing your recipes are so easy (because of how well you explain) and delicious. Thank you!
Because I love guava, I bought one of those cans of guava paste. I didn't know what I was going to do with it but up here in midstate New York, we don't get a lot of guava products. Whenever I got off the plane in Hawaii, I'd go to the hotel, unpack and I wouldn't head for the beach, I'd head to the grocery store for 100% guava juice! ANYway, a few years after buying this paste it was reaching the end of its expiration date so I just opened it and tried it ... I think with crackers and cream cheese. Ugh, you're right. On its own ... not so good. Can't wait to try this!
Hi. I really enjoy your channel. I am Brazilian and guava paste is a very popular dessert served with cheese. But, there is always a but, cheaper guava paste has chayote (Sechium edule), xuxu in Portuguese, mixed into it. The lighter and sort of transparent it looks, the more chayote mixed in and the blander the flavor. Good guava paste is dark red and totally opaque. Even better if it has chunks of the outer layer of the fruit mixed in - the one you used seemed to have the chunks, but was very transparent. Keep on the great work though.
Wow, you nailed it John. I baked this today and we're delicious 🤤. I grew up in Puerto Rico eating this "pastelillos". In every corner in PR, there is a panadería, which sells fresh bread and sweets. This were and still my favorites pastries. We also have a variation in cilindrical shape made with only the cream cheese mix you made and called it "quesitos". Those are really good too. Also, we have another one with just guava paste and sprinkled with powder sugar on top. Thank you for your video..
I actually tried loads of your recipe's and they are very delicious and so is this one ,when I tasted it. It tasted like heaven and it is my dad and moms favorite dish that is why I made it ❤
Here in PR we also have them just with the sweetened cream cheese (quesitos), beef filling with a sweet top, chicken, chorizo, chorizo a la gabardina which is a spanish chorizo rolled (like pigs on a blanket) with a sweet outside (like corn syrup ish) those are to die for. Guava paste melted over brie cheese and nuts or edam cheese squares and guava paste cubes, omg it is so good.
These are so beautiful and I absolutely looooove guava! I miss my guava trees. Please do a puff pastry video. I’ve always used store-bought, but would love to learn how to make my own.
Yum! I make these at Christmas time with our Cuban feast on Christmas Eve, Noche Buena. They're called Refugiados. ❤❤✌🏼❤❤ You should make the Cuban Pasteles de Carne too! Double yum!!!
*”I’ve been keeping it in my apron like a little kangaroo & I feel attached to it”* has been my favorite of your sayings.
😆❤ yes! The best!
Omg I just started the video and heard him say this and it was so adorable! I was searching for a comment on it and here it is ❤️😄
I must agree with stuck in my head! I also never thought to put the cream cheese in an apron pocket to get it to room temperature! I’m going to have to try this recipe!
Recently, I've been nestling eggs on the stove top as my oven preheats to get them to room temp before baking, but I think I'll give the body heat method a try now.
OMG, as a first gen Cuban myself, I geeked out over this video. Lol. As someone nowhere a Cuban bakery or Cafe, knowing how to make these is gold. 🥰😘🤗🇨🇺

The sweetest thing about cooking Asking our moms doubts from the kitchen no matter how old/experienced we are 💖
Here in colombia guava with salty cheese it's called marriage because it's like the perfect combination
In Brazil we call it Romeo and Juliet for the same reason. :)
Ugh, in México we use it too, also with ate de membrillo (quince jelly). My grandpa loved it! I can't eat it, for some reason the thoughts of combining salty cheese with sweet things irks me haha
I’m home sick.... need all Colombian food plus the fam lol!! I make these all the time but they go before I plate them.

You just brought me back to my culture when I’d go visit family in Puerto Rico!!! 🙋🏻♀️👍🏼 thanks for sharing can’t wait to make this recipe 😇🥰
Love that he called his mom!! 💙
He is naturally so funny! Very big personality 👍🏻fun to watch and great recipes. Yum Yum😄can’t wait to try this recipe.
I’m Cuban! So nice to see this!
Try a thin slice of guava on a burger. It’ll change your life. ❤️
THANK YOU! My favorite treat!!! I make them and eat them all! Hahaha
Those are “pastelillos” to me because I am Puerto Rican, but I know for Cuban they are “pastelitos”. I haven’t read the comments yet, BUT I KNOW for sure that you will get a comment from a Puerto Rican arguing about the name😂😂😂😂 Some can’t understand that we all have different names for the same thing! LOVE YOUR RECIPES!
I made these just now and my husband and I loved them! My husband said he loves your recipes, John!
I live in South Florida and guava and cream cheese pastries are everywhereeee. They're so delicious.
These were a big hit at our monthly socially distanced ladies night. Looking forward to more like this. Thanks!!👍
Had some in Miami and OMG 😳 THE BEST pastry ever
OMG! John, you made me remember when I was little, my grandma made the dulce de guayaba at home. We had guayaba trees in the orchard in a little town called Bochalema, in Colombia. It was a heavenly smell at home when cooking the jam. So nice you bring this recipe! Thank you!
Pastelitos de guayaba are the best dessert!!! These look amazing!!!
Amazing! Pastel Romeu e Julieta (like we call cheese + guava combination in Brazil).
90 seconds in and the level of cuteness 😂 I cannot! Moms are the best!
Your sweet as the pastry! I like your videos. Your mom is a proud momma.
Your voice and description of the recipe is so soothing. Love your videos! Just made the flan. The pastelistos are next

Just so you know I liked this video before even watching it. As a Cuban, who lives in Canadá and can’t find pastelitos de guayaba anywhere, thank you!!!
Haha! Love it when it your mom makes a cameo. Hola señora, gracias por criar a un caballero talentoso.
John! These are a favorite around my household I can't wait to make these and impress them later on! Thank you for sharing your recipes are so easy (because of how well you explain) and delicious. Thank you!
You are such a good baker!! I always follow your recipe!! They are never too sweet and never too salty!! Thank you 😊
Bro, the whole vibe of his videos are so kind and happy. Same with “Emma’s Goodies”.
Because I love guava, I bought one of those cans of guava paste. I didn't know what I was going to do with it but up here in midstate New York, we don't get a lot of guava products. Whenever I got off the plane in Hawaii, I'd go to the hotel, unpack and I wouldn't head for the beach, I'd head to the grocery store for 100% guava juice! ANYway, a few years after buying this paste it was reaching the end of its expiration date so I just opened it and tried it ... I think with crackers and cream cheese. Ugh, you're right. On its own ... not so good. Can't wait to try this!
I love all your recipes!! Your recipes are not only easy but pretty.
Pastelitos de guayaba
Más ahora que es época de guayaba en mi país y están deliciosas.
Greetings from Mexico 😊
I am making this tomorrow. It will be the third recipe of yours I made and loved!
Hi. I really enjoy your channel. I am Brazilian and guava paste is a very popular dessert served with cheese. But, there is always a but, cheaper guava paste has chayote (Sechium edule), xuxu in Portuguese, mixed into it. The lighter and sort of transparent it looks, the more chayote mixed in and the blander the flavor. Good guava paste is dark red and totally opaque. Even better if it has chunks of the outer layer of the fruit mixed in - the one you used seemed to have the chunks, but was very transparent. Keep on the great work though.
Wow, you nailed it John. I baked this today and we're delicious 🤤. I grew up in Puerto Rico eating this "pastelillos". In every corner in PR, there is a panadería, which sells fresh bread and sweets. This were and still my favorites pastries. We also have a variation in cilindrical shape made with only the cream cheese mix you made and called it "quesitos". Those are really good too. Also, we have another one with just guava paste and sprinkled with powder sugar on top. Thank you for your video..
You're my favorite chef and goto guy for yummy things. Love you, John. ❤
They look awesome a must try
I love your pronunciation of the Pastelitos de Guayaba 💞💞 your Spanish is great
Omg 😳 I can’t wait to make these pastelitos, they look soooo good. Thank you so much for the recipe. Blessings to you and your family ❤️
Pastelitos de Guayaba are sooo good! So happy you made them
I have tried so many version of puff pastry treats over the years but never tried this one. So excited to find something new to make 😍😍
I actually tried loads of your recipe's and they are very delicious and so is this one ,when I tasted it. It tasted like heaven and it is my dad and moms favorite dish that is why I made it ❤
Its Pastelillo de guayaba thats how we call it in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. I guess it depends where your from, but I must say i love the way you say it.
MzMacnamera 🇺🇸🇵🇷🥳🇺🇸🇵🇷🥳
You got it right, pastelitos de guayaba .. thank u for this delicious recipe!😋
This looks delicious!! Thanks John!!
I can definitely eat a whole batch in a few days .love guava one of my fruit
Love anything made with guave.
I grew up with pastelitos! My grandma made them more like a meat pie, she was Cuban. I have never even thought of a sweet version.
Love how you cared about pronouncing goiaba properly, the Brazilian in me appreciates that and yes, you nailed it 😊 this looks amazing!!!
Here in PR we also have them just with the sweetened cream cheese (quesitos), beef filling with a sweet top, chicken, chorizo, chorizo a la gabardina which is a spanish chorizo rolled (like pigs on a blanket) with a sweet outside (like corn syrup ish) those are to die for. Guava paste melted over brie cheese and nuts or edam cheese squares and guava paste cubes, omg it is so good.
Preppy kitchen is my favorite 😋
Pastelitos! I love it when you present latin desserts! So yummy. I would also make them with dulce de leche!!
I agree with you, life is too short for dry pastry! Give me the filling!
Tried this today and it turned out to be heavenly.. thank you for this awesome recipe.
So glad you made these. I grew up eating them. We call them Pastelillos. Same thing. You should make a video on how to make quesitos. Mmm so good.
These are so beautiful and I absolutely looooove guava! I miss my guava trees.
Please do a puff pastry video. I’ve always used store-bought, but would love to learn how to make my own.
My mom and I used to make these together all the time when I was a kid in Puerto Rico 😊
Yum! I make these at Christmas time with our Cuban feast on Christmas Eve, Noche Buena. They're called Refugiados. ❤❤✌🏼❤❤ You should make the Cuban Pasteles de Carne too! Double yum!!!
I love making Pastelitos de Guayaba 🇨🇺 I love your channel!
