Nutritional Benefits

Quince paste (ate de membrillo, also called dulce de membrillo) is a fruit-based confection made from quince. It is naturally fat-free and plant-based, carrying the sweet, floral character of cooked quince. Its firm, sliceable texture makes it easy to portion for cheese boards, pastries, and desserts.

How to Use

Slice the block into thin sheets or small cubes. Pair with cheese (manchego is classic), spread into pastries and empanadas, layer into tarts, or melt gently to make a glaze. It holds its shape at room temperature, so it slices cleanly for plating.

Recipes

Quince-Filled Pastries: Fold small cubes into puff pastry or empanada dough and bake until golden.

Cheese Board Centerpiece: Slice and arrange alongside aged cheeses, nuts, and crackers.
