Chewable energy with an improved formula to train or compete without losing your rhythm
Evoenergy Gummy with Caffeine from SportSeries is a candy jelly bar, with flavour, caffeine and an improved formula.
It’s made for those moments when you want energy, but you also fancy something solid and easy to eat. Its compact 30 g format fits anywhere: in the cycling jersey, in the pocket of your shorts, on your running belt, or in your hydration backpack without taking up space. The idea is simple: have a convenient option to get carbohydrates on the move, as a direct alternative to classic gels. When your workout drags on or gets intense, the key isn’t just “getting energy in”, it’s doing it in a practical way. A gummy-like texture makes the difference: you chew quickly, it goes down easily, and it lets you keep doing your thing.
A bar that adapts to your pace: quick, compact and made for eating while you’re in action.
High glycemic index carbohydrates
During the session, what usually works best is the simple stuff: high-availability carbohydrates your body can use quickly. Each bar provides around 21 g of carbohydrates and 87 kcal, coming mainly from sources like sugar and glucose and fructose syrups— a classic combo when you’re after energy that’s ready to use.
It’s an ideal option for long sessions, demanding intervals, climbs, changes of pace, or any situation where you want to keep the intensity going without relying only on isotonic drinks.
Gummy texture: a really practical way to add solid energy
The base with pectin gives you that gummy-like bite that you can eat easily. Plus, the coating makes it feel nicer to the touch and more comfortable to handle without it sticking too much—either to the wrapper or to your hands. The result is a bar that’s easy to eat, especially useful when you don’t want a dense bar or when you want to alternate formats—drink, gel and solid—without making it complicated.
Glucose:fructose ratio 1:0,8: get the details
One of the standout points of this improved formula is its glucose:fructose ratio 1:0,8. In sports nutrition, combining carbohydrate sources that’re absorbed through different pathways can help improve the amount of carbohydrate you can use during exercise, while also improving tolerance when the effort lasts longer. The Jeukendrup team and colleagues have popularised this “multiple transportable carbohydrates” approach, and studies using glucose/fructose mixes show benefits over using just one source.
In practice: Evoenergy Gummy fits particularly well when you already have an in-workout plan with gels and isotonic drink, and you want solid options that keep providing carbohydrates—without always relying on the same format.
100mg of caffeine per bar
There are days when you need more than just carbohydrates. Evoenergy Gummy with Caffeine provides 100 mg of caffeine, an amount meant to be used strategically: before an intense workout, in the final stretch of a long ride, or right before the key block of the session. Practically speaking, caffeine is associated with a better feeling of alertness and can help make the effort feel more manageable when the pace rises—so it’s pretty common in endurance sports and also in high-intensity sessions.
How to work it into your planning
If you already know caffeine suits you, you can save it for when you really need it: that climb that costs you, that change of pace, the final part of your workout, or that early-morning session. If you’re sensitive, the smart move is to try it in training before using it in competition, and avoid it too close to bedtime.
200mg of sodium per bar: a handy extra
In sports where you sweat a lot—cycling, running, trail, triathlon or intense indoor sessions—sodium is a key point because it’s part of the electrolytes that you lose through sweat. Each bar provides 200 mg of sodium, which works really well on hot days, during long workouts, or in situations where you notice you’ve lost electrolytes. Just bear in mind that this amount doesn’t replace a full hydration strategy, but it’s a super convenient way to add an extra when you’re on the move.
Practical protocols: learn how to use it
The great thing about Evoenergy Gummy with Caffeine is that it fits lots of different scenarios and goes really well with isotonic drinks and gels. The improved formula keeps that practical approach: you carry it with you, eat it when you notice you need it, and support your in-workout nutrition without complications and without losing your rhythm.
Endurance: cycling, running, trail and triathlon: In medium-to-long sessions, a convenient option is to alternate formats: drink to keep providing carbs and electrolytes steadily, and the bar as a solid bite when you need it most. As a base, you can rely on Evotonic or Evocarbs 2.0, and leave Evoenergy Gel for the moments when you need something super fast, or when you don’t feel like eating anything solid. The caffeine bar fits especially well before a demanding stretch, or when you’re looking for an alternative to gel.
HIIT, cross training and team sports: If your session is intense and of moderate duration, this bar can work as a quick carb boost before you start, between blocks, or during the break—and the caffeine can be a nice extra depending on your needs. On heavy-sweat days, sodium is a support within a complete hydration and mineral replenishment strategy.
Indoor workouts with heat: winning combo with isotonic: When you train on a roller, treadmill, or in group classes, sweating can be high even if you don’t notice right away. That’s when it usually works really well to carry an isotonic bottle, or water and salts, and save the bar for those moments when you want to eat something—when the session is really long, or when you want to keep your carb intake going without relying only on the liquid.
