Customer reviews from the world’s best: “Training haven’t been the only factor I improved this year but also the hydration and fueling during races and projects… I have been also trying different gels to until find the ones that gives me energy and not any stomach problem ( that is different for every person but I found @mountainfuel_uk good for me ). A tip to be sure we leave no trace and we don’t need to use our hands to open the gel is to merge the gels with water into a soft flask home and just drink from it during our race or activity.” Kilian Jornet – World Champion Sky, Ultra and Trail Runner
“I love Mountain Fuel, particularly when I use the whole system on race days. The Sports Jellies are best gels I’ve ever used and the flapjack bars are so much easier to eat on the run than other bars I’ve used.” Jon Albon, World Trail Running Champion
But it’s not just the elites, one of our users encouraged some friends to try, “I’ve got them to try out the jellies in training. They were expecting a syrupy sickly mess, but the jellies are totally different and so were pleasantly surprised by how easy the jellies are on the tummy!” Tom Campbell
Vegan and Gluten Free.
These are not jelly blocks, they are like a liquid jelly. Our unique formula encapsulates the carbohydrate in a natural hydrogel enabling it to pass smoothly through your stomach to deliver sustained energy without the gut bombs that can be associated with traditional sports gels.
I really don’t like gels but at the intensity I run and over the distances I cover you need convenient fuel. Having used the Mountain Fuel Sport Jelly in training and races like my record breaking Lakeland 50 race I can’t recommend them highly enough. Subtle flavours and a smooth jelly consistency make them a refreshing treat on a run.” Katie Kaars Sijpesteijn, Salomon Running and Team GB athlete.
Love the new Sports Jelly, used them for the first time in combination with the new Raw Energy Fuel when I broke the Keswick Mountain Festival course record on a horrendously hot day and raced for the first time not having to worry about stomach issues. Found my perfect race combo, cant’t wait to race again!” Rob Sinclair, Salomon Running & Team GB Athlete
We currently have two versions of our Lime Sports Jelly, the smooth original jelly (BBE NOV 2022) and a new version, the chunky jelly (BBE SEP 2022), where we’ve increased the density of the hydrogel to create a more ‘food’ type feel in the mouth.

Description
The Sports Jelly is fundamentally different to a traditional gel. We selected a specific pectin which enables us to encapsulate the multi source carbohydrate in a natural hydrogel, melting in your mouth and passing through your system without any worries of GI (stomach issues), while providing a sustained energy release. The process we follow enables us to hydrate the jelly while encapsulating the carbohydrate and minerals to ensure you do not require additional fluid and the Jelly passes through your system efficiently making it very easy on the stomach – No gut bombs and perfect for sporty kids through to adults. By utilising g a hydrogel in a sports gel we have helped athletes of all abilities who previously struggled or simply could not use traditional sports gels due to the impact on their digestive systems. Having successfully helped IBD sufferers (Crohn’s & Colitis) to enjoy their racing again the Mountain Fuel Sports Jellies have been described by many as ‘game changers’.

First Swimrun event this weekend and I was a bit apprehensive about nutrition as I’m coeliac and can’t make use of Jaffa Cakes etc at feed stations. Stuck half a dozen jellies in my back pocket and hoped for best. What a revelation! I’ve been using MF Raw Energy drink in previous races with no probs, but I’m now also a convert to the jellies. Got through around 1 per hour. No gut issues and crucially, no need to swill the jellies down with water. Felt great and full of energy throughout the race. Would highly recommend.

I tried the jellies for the first time during a race this weekend and they’re so much better than the usual gels I had been using. A unsual texture at first but better than the sticky, claggy gels. Easy to get down and I didn’t need to wash a dreadful taste out of my mouth after taking it. The cola and caffeine gave me a good kick but my favourite is the lemon and lime, a great refreshing flavour.

Really nice refreshing taste, not sickly or at all and no side effects on the stomach. My favourite flavour is lemon and lime.

I thought these were just expensive gels but no, they really are much better:
– taste nice/easy to consume
– give you more long lasting ‘strength’ than gels

Mountain Fuel have nailed it with the jellies. They do exactly what you want, no frills. The texture initially surprised me – I was expecting a gel (despite all the marketing!) but they are very much a soft jelly consistency, which feels less cloying in your mouth as well as easier to get down on the go. Taste is simple and refreshing and with no bitter chemical aftertaste. They hit quickly, and provide a sustained energy release with no peaks and troughs. They work great in combo with the raw energy fuel, but just as well solo, and are isotonic (meaning no need for water to digest properly) with a full complement of electrolytes. Most importantly, they sit well on the stomach – I have used these during ultras (Scafell Sky Race) at steady go-all-day pace, and during half ironman events racing much closer to threshold, as well as during training at all intensities in between and above with no issues and only positive things to say. They are great.

Finally! – A genuine alternative to sickly gels. These Jelly’s hit the spot in flavour, calories and added hydration. Tasty, but light flavours complete a perfect addition to your nutritional armoury

The MF jellies are a welcome addition to my cycling supplies. As a long term fan of Mountain Fuel products through extensive use on 8000m peaks in the Himalayas I had no doubt that this new product would be worth the wait. Used this year on the Etape du Tour and the UCI Gran Fondo in Varese. Easy to get down without the sticky after taste of similar products.

I first used the Mountain Fuel sports jellies in the run up to the Hardmoors 60 this year. After having completed the Hardmoors 110 using the Morning Fuel as shakes and in little pancakes as fuel, I was looking for something to get me through the latter stages of the race when the fatigue kicked in. The Cola flavoured ones with the additional caffeine did the trick. Easy to swallow (gels have made me throw up in the past) and gentle on the stomach, no sickly taste either. The kick from the caffeine definitely worked and my energy levels definitely remained consistent rather than dropping off towards the end of the race. A big thumbs up from me!

Been using MF now for a few years the addition of these jellies really compliments the the rest of the MF products. Used the jellies along with the Extreme Raw at the European Triathlon Championships in Estonia and managed a negative split on my 10k run. They are easy taking and no upset stomach love the flavours.

First time I used the Jellies I won a race! They’re so different to gels – you don’t feel thirsty and they’re much more refreshing with non of the post race stomach churning. I’ve also given them to friends on training runs who have also remarked on how good they are.

Mountain Fuel Jellies are very refreshing and palatable compared to other gels I have used. No tummy issues and they are easy to get down when feeling tired and nauseous. They are on my ‘Mandatory kit list’?

I love these jellies! I have been struggling with food during long events, I started using these after a poor summer of struggling to keep any food down and they’ve genuinely changed running for me! Used them last weekend I’m Glencoe and had a great day! Lime is my favourite but love the other flavours too!

I loved the lime aswell as the Cola flavour (not tried the orange yet). The sustained energy was brilliant, instead of a different brand which spikes my sugar levels and then drops off. The Mountain Fuel one’s seemed to just keep me going for longer. I use them in off road triathlons and at cyclo cross races. This should give me the edge next season!

I used Mf jellies on the Serpent Trail 50kms and all my training runs. They are fantastic and taste amazing. Cola is definitely my favourite and will be in my training and racepack forever more.

The Sports Jellies get a big thumbs up from me! I used them in combination with the equally excellent Raw Energy for this year’s Scafell Sky Race and was so impressed, they were my go to choice of fuel for the Lakeland 50 a fortnight later. They taste great, very palatable and very easy to digest. Highly recommended!
