Dried guava is a tropical fruit snack you rarely find on ordinary shelves — sweet, fragrant and satisfying to chew. If you already know raisins and dried mango and want to try something new, dried guava belongs on your list.

How dried guava is made

AlSultanFood dried guava is made through a natural, traditional drying process. The water in the fruit is removed slowly, leaving dried slices that keep far longer than fresh guava.

We make sure this product is clean and halal, and it is neatly packed before it is sent to you.

Taste and texture

The moment you open the pack, you will notice that distinctive guava aroma. It tastes sweet with a tropical fruit character, and the texture is chewy and satisfying. This is a snack to chew slowly — perfect for a relaxed break.

Ways to enjoy dried guava

  • A break-time snack — a few slices with tea.
  • Tropical snack platter: serve with Harum Manis dried mango and nuts.
  • Travel snack: light and no fridge needed.
  • Office sharing: keep a jar on the desk for colleagues.
  • Topping: chop small and sprinkle over yogurt or ice cream.

For a colourful platter, combine dried guava, dried mango and dried cranberries. Each brings a different flavour and texture.

Pick the right size

  1. 150g or 200g — ideal for a first try.
  2. 500g — for families or sharing at the office.
  3. 800g — for true dried guava fans and big families.

How to build a tropical fruit snack platter

A beautiful snack platter doesn’t need to be complicated. Follow these simple steps for guests or family tea time:

  1. Pick a large plate or wooden board.
  2. Place dried guava slices on one side and dried mango on the other.
  3. Fill the gaps with dried cranberries and nuts such as almonds or cashews.
  4. Add a few dates in the middle as a centrepiece.
  5. Serve with hot tea or a cold drink.

Who will love dried guava?

  • Fans of fresh guava who want a longer-lasting version.
  • Anyone who already knows raisins and dried mango and wants a new taste.
  • Families who like sharing fruit snacks in front of the TV.
  • Office workers who want a desk snack that needs no fridge.

If you are not sure, start with a small pack. It is easy to come back for a bigger one once you have tried it.

Dried guava or fresh?

Fresh guava is easy to find in Malaysia, but it needs to be eaten within a few days. The dried version keeps longer and goes anywhere without cutting or washing. The flavour is more concentrated because the water has been removed, and the texture changes from crunchy to chewy.

Both have their place — fresh guava for eating at home, dried guava for lunchboxes, travel and the snack drawer.

How to store dried guava

  • Keep it in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
  • Seal the pack tightly after opening.
  • In hot, humid weather, the fridge helps it stay in good condition.
  • Check the expiry date on the packaging.
