I first had this in Florida. It is delicious. I made this for a Cuban friend of mine and he loved it. |

To assemble: Take thawed cold puff pastry (warning: don’t leave this out for too long or you can’t unfold it). Open each pastry packet up and cut each packet on the 3 seams lengthwise making three sections from each packet. Spread the guava puree on half (3 sections) of the puff pastry and cover with the remaining three sections. You will have 3 complete strips when you are done. Mix the beaten eggs with 1 Tablespoon of water and brush on the top of the pastry. Bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes.
