Real Fruit. Built for Speed.

XACT Fruit Gels are what happens when you refuse to compromise on taste just because you need your fuel fast. Thirty grams of carbs per sachet delivered in a smooth texture that goes down easily even at maximum intensity.

Fuel That Works

Each gel is packed with 30g of easy-to-digest carbs from real fruit purée, delivering quick energy exactly when you need it. It absorbs cleanly, fuels smoothly, and won't sit heavy in your stomach during intense effort.

Real Fruit. Real Taste.

Apricot, Strawberry, Blackcurrant. Flavours that actually taste like the fruit they come from. Plus Blackcurrant comes with 50mg natural caffeine for racing and hard efforts.

Made for Speed

The sachet's wide opening means one solid squeeze and you're finished. No slurping, no fussing, no pause. No immediate water rinse required. Just fuel that goes down cleanly and lets you stay focused on the effort.

For years, our athletes asked "Can you make your Fruit Bars as a gel?"

We heard it from runners who don't like to chew. From cyclists who needed to open their fuel faster than a bar allows. From anyone who loved the taste and ingredients of our bars but needed a format that worked differently.

The ask was clear — but we knew we had to do it right.

We took our time because we weren't willing to release a gel until it met the same standard as our Fruit Bars. Same real fruit ingredients. Same cuisine-first approach to fueling. Just in a form you don't have to chew.

So we took our Fruit Bars and reinvented the gel around the same amazing-ness.

We engineered the texture to be smooth and light. We designed the sachet opening to be massive so you can consume everything in one squeeze mid-effort. And of course, we made it taste good enough that you'd actually look forward to it.

This is the gel version of what XACT does.

Taste first. Real ingredients. Engineered for the moment you're actually using it. Just the best gel we could possibly make.

Absorption is the same across formats.

30g of carbs from real fruit absorbs identically to carbs from a bar, gel, or drink mix. What matters is total carbohydrate availability, not the source. Choose your format based on what works for your effort and stomach, not marketing claims.

Taste drives adherence. Adherence drives performance.

An athlete who enjoys their fuel fuels more consistently. Consistent fueling beats the "best" product you won't actually use.

And for those wondering, our G/F ratio is 2:1 ;)

Short moderate efforts (under 60 minutes): You probably don't need gels, but if you want a little treat, we can't fault you for that.

Moderate long efforts (60 minutes to 3 hours): 1 gel every 45–60 minutes. Or alternate with Fruit Bars (25g) for variety and to dial in your carb target. Total carbs per hour should match your effort intensity.

Hard efforts and racing (any duration): Most of the time: 1 gel every 30–45 minutes. Stack to 2–3 per hour if you're pushing.

Caffeine gels (Blackcurrant Performance): 50mg natural caffeine. Takes 30–120 minutes to peak, so consume 60 minutes before you want full effect.

How to consume: Rip sachet open. One squeeze. Move on.

But real talk....Your fuelling strategy changes with the session. A race looks nothing like training. A three-hour steady ride looks nothing like a one-hour intervals. Start with what makes sense for your effort, see how your stomach responds, adjust accordingly. Our fuelling calculator can help if you want the detailed breakdown on when and how much of our products to pack.

Ex. Pair with:

  • Fruit Bars for longer efforts (alternate formats to keep the palate engaged)
  • Endurance Bars when hunger hits around hour 3 of long efforts
  • Electrolyte Tabs if you're sweating heavily
  • Energy Chews if you want flexible portion control

STRAWBERRY INGREDIENTS: Sugars (glucose syrup, sugar, sweetened strawberry purée [strawberry purée, sugar], unsweetened apple purée, fructose), salt, potassium chloride.

APRICOT INGREDIENTS : Sugars (glucose syrup, sugar, sweetened apricot purée [apricot purée, sugar], unsweetened apple purée, fructose), salt, potassium chloride.

BLACKCURRANT INGREDIENTS: Sugars (glucose syrup, sugar, unsweetened apple purée, fructose, sweetened blackcurrant purée [blackcurrant purée, sugar]), coffee bean extract (caffeine), salt, potassium chloride.

Used them for training during my first marathon and they really kept me going! Would use again! Really liked strawberry and apricot, not so much Black currant and pairing them with the energy bars made all the difference.

I've been using gels for 10+ years and finally found the right ones! So easy to eat, digest and no stomach issues. Plus, they're the best tasting ones on the market. I went through them fast because there was no hesitation to take them on a run with me.

I’ve been using the XACT Energy fruit gels for cycling and they’re honestly much easier to take than most traditional gels. The texture is more like real fruit purée instead of thick syrup, so they go down easier and don’t upset my stomach. Taste is really good too — less artificial than most brands. I especially like the apricot and strawberry flavors. Only downside is the price, but for long rides or races I’d definitely buy them again.

Well one would think-another gel! Nope not these ones. Like it’s brother, the fruit bar these go down so well. No stick to the inside of your mouth was noticeable right away. These are definitely going to be a game changer in my running game 🤟

Déjà fan des barres, je suis conquis par ce nouveau gel de fruits. On y retrouve la signature XACT : une sensation de vrai fruit (purée d’abricot ou fraise) sans aucun arrière-goût chimique. La texture est fluide, super facile à avaler même à haute intensité, et surtout, la tolérance digestive est irréprochable. C'est le complément parfait à la pâte de fruit quand on a besoin d'une dose d'énergie rapide sans sacrifier le plaisir gustatif. Une vraie réussite !

These gels are so good! They don’t taste too sweet and they taste like fruits. Easiest way to get all my carbs while biking.

hard to open + a touch dry compared to best-in-class (Maurten), but I enjoy the natural ingredients and flavour

Vous avez oublie dappliquer mon rabais aur ma commande, cest frustrant

XACT Energy Fruit Gels (Box of 24)

Store owner replied: Bonjour Richard, merci pour votre retour. Nous voyons qu'un rabais de 10% a bien été appliqué a votre commande de 30 juillet. Est ce qu'il fallait un rabais différent? Notre équipe de service a la clientèle vous a écrit a ce sujet pour trouver la solution qui vous convient.

The gels themselves are fantastic. Taste great and definitely give me a boost. However, I’d be hesitant to buy again based on the design of the tear open top. It does not tear open very cleanly or easily. Multiple times now, the top either tears across but doesn’t actually open the gel or it tears all the way down the side making a mess on my hands. As someone who runs a lot and long distances, I don’t like to stop when I take my gel. With these gels and the way the packages open, I have no choice but to stop and really focus when tearing open. Also, what I really want are the jube jube type gels that you guys have, those are easy to open and taste amazing. What do you call those on your website. During the Ottawa Marathon this year they were giving them away at all water stations. I want those ones!

Store owner replied: Dear Michael - thanks for the feedback, were already hard at work on V2 of the fruit gel packaging... The ones you're asking about are XACT Energy Fruit Bars - as seen at Ottawa marathon (plus Vancouver, Calgary, Montreal to name just a fraction of the races we support across Canada 👍🏼)

Truly love XACT products, and very happy they started making gels ! This basically tastes like yummy strawberry jam.

XACT Energy Fruit Gels (Box of 24)

Super gels, j’ai adoré le goût et la consistance, passé très bien durant l’effort. Je l’ai essayé après 2h30 de sortir et il a été très agréable à prendre. Souvent ce que je n’aime pas dans les gels c’est le côté visqueux et collant en bouche. Celui ci se rapproche plus de la consistance d’une compote. Par contre j’ai retiré une etoile, car le jour où je l’ai essayé il pleuvait, et avec les mains mouiller, j’ai eu beaucoup de mal à l’ouvrir. Certainement que par temps sec ce ne sera pas un problème, mais par temps mouillé c’est moin évident. Sinon c’est parfait pour moi !

La barre de Érable est tout simplement 🤯 L’an passé j’avais essayé abricot cette année j’ai pris cerise, ne m’attendait à un gout plus prononcé, mais quand même excellent.
