Tita’s Guguria
Guguria is a much-loved local treat that is sometimes called “the Chamorro jawbreaker.” These small, hard, deep-fried and sugarcoated cookies are made with just three ingredients: flour, sugar and coconut milk. Since 1965, Mariquita “Tita” Leon Guerrero has been making guguria using a family recipe that was passed down from her grandmother.
Tita’s Guguria is one of the most recognizable and best-selling Made on Guam products. It is a popular gift item among both tourists and locals and can be found in convenience stores and supermarkets such as Pay-Less and upscale shopping houses such as T-Galleria Guam.
Hafaloha
Weaving Chamorro and Hawaiian culture together, Hafaloha is an Only on Guam brand that takes shave ice to a whole new level. Hafaloha serves up soft, snowy Hawaiian-style shave ice, sweetened by flavored syrups and piled high over a creamy scoop of vanilla ice cream. With more than 40 syrup flavors to choose from, you can create your own masterpiece or try one of their bestselling flavors such as latiya (a Chamorro vanilla custard cake dessert), orange dreamsicle and strawberry shortcake.
Visit the Hafaloha shop at the Flame Tree Plaza across from Pacific Islands Club in Tumon.
