Our family is enjoying the company of my parents over the next two weeks and together we are celebrating my son’s 5-year-old birthday and spending some time together building memories with the kids.
This recipe for a Cuban style Guava and Cream filled Pastry is inspired by my Dad who is from Cuba. When I was a little girl, my dad’s parents lived in Miami. Whenever we went to visit my grandparents we would get a box of pastries from La Rosa Bakery. I wanted to recreate the delicious guava filled pastries from La Rosa so I asked my dad for some help.
