Untapped Maple Syrup Running Gels — Single-Serve 100-Calorie Vermont Packets, Water-Soluble Energy

Untapped’s single-serve maple syrup gel packs are 100% pure Vermont maple syrup in easy-squeeze packets designed to give runners and endurance athletes clean, portable energy.

This product pairs traditional maple syrup with modern sports fueling. Each lightweight packet contains a single 100-calorie serving of organic maple syrup sourced from Vermont, formulated to be water-soluble, quick to digest, and convenient to carry on runs, rides, or long training sessions. Free from additives, preservatives, and artificial sweeteners, these gels prioritize uncomplicated carbohydrate fueling that blends with water and rinses clean after use.

How does Untapped maple syrup fuel help during long runs?

The simple sugars and natural carbohydrates in maple syrup provide quick, usable energy while offering sustained release compared with some high-glycemic sweeteners. Because the syrup is pure and water-soluble, athletes can quickly consume calories without heavy textures that slow digestion. Many users find the taste and clean ingredients easier on the stomach during prolonged efforts.

• 100 calories per packet for predictable fueling.
• Water-soluble formulation that mixes or rinses easily.
• Organic Vermont maple for natural carbohydrate profile.
• No preservatives or artificial additives to burden digestion.

Will these packs cause a sugar spike or crash?

Untapped’s maple syrup packs are described as lower glycemic than many concentrated dextrose gels because they contain maple’s natural mix of sugars and minerals. That profile can lead to steadier blood sugar responses for some athletes, especially when paired with hydration and regular intake intervals. Individual responses vary, so testing during training is recommended before race day.

• Natural mix of sugars rather than pure glucose or fructose syrups.
• Recommended to take at consistent intervals to maintain steady energy.
• Works best when combined with water for hydration balance.
• Test in practice to understand your personal response.

How should I carry and use these packets on the run?

Packets are lightweight and shaped for single-handed tearing and squeezing, fitting easily in pockets, vests, or waist packs. Squeeze directly into the mouth or mix with water in a bottle; the maple syrup dissolves cleanly and leaves minimal residue. Discard the empty packet properly after use to keep trails clean.

• Slip several packets into a running vest or shorts pocket.
• Tear or twist top, squeeze slowly to control intake.
• Optional: dilute in 200–300 ml of water if preferred.
• Bring extras for longer workouts or race days.

What nutritional benefits come from real maple syrup?

Beyond carbohydrates, pure maple syrup contains trace minerals and antioxidant compounds natural to the sap-to-syrup process. These include small amounts of manganese, zinc, and potassium, plus polyphenols that contribute antioxidant activity. While not a replacement for a balanced diet, these elements add nutritional value compared with blank-calorie sweeteners.

• Provides electrolytes like potassium and small amounts of zinc.
• Contains naturally occurring antioxidants from maple polyphenols.
• Delivers energy with real-food ingredients rather than synthetic chemicals.
• 100% organic sourcing from Vermont maple trees.
