Product Description
Product Description
Energy capsulated in a natural hydrogel. Each serving contains 100 mg of caffeine and delivers 25 grams of carbohydrates. Built with seven ingredients – no added colorants, preservatives or flavours.
Suitable for Vegetarians & Vegans.
The GEL 100 CAF 100 contains 100 mg of caffeine – that’s the equivalent of 1,5 espressos – or one cup of brewed coffee. That’s a lot compared to many of the traditional gels out there. It delivers 25 grams of carbohydrates through a unique blend of fructose and glucose (ratio of 0.8:1). It packs a high weight to energy ratio and doesn’t contain any added flavours, preservatives or colourants. Just like all of our products, it’s vegan-friendly.
Use the GEL 100 CAF 100 on its own during shorter durations, or combine it with other Maurten products to ensure you have enough carbohydrates throughout your session.
Use alongside caffeine-free Maurten Gel 100 or Maurten Gel 160 to balance the fuel and caffeine in your plan.

The Science
The Science
HYDROGEL, WITHOUT THE LAB COAT.
Maurten Gel uses a glucose-fructose carbohydrate blend held in a hydrogel structure built from alginate. It also provides 100mg of caffeine. Each serving provides 25g of carbohydrate, giving athletes a clearly measurable chunk of race fuel.
Carbohydrate availability matters during prolonged exercise because the body's stored carbohydrate is finite. Taking carbohydrate during longer sessions helps provide an external fuel source and can support sustained exercise performance. Using more than one transportable carbohydrate — such as glucose and fructose — is also a common strategy when athletes are targeting higher carbohydrate intakes.
Maurten's clever bit is the delivery format: a firm, mild-tasting hydrogel rather than a syrupy traditional gel. It doesn't make carbohydrate magical. It makes getting the carbohydrate in rather neat.
25g of carbs. Very little theatre. Quite a lot of useful fuel.
How To Use
How To Use
Tear it open and take it in stages during training or racing when energy demand starts climbing. Gel 100 Caf 100 combines 25g of carbohydrates with 100mg of caffeine, making it a solid option for race starts that feel too early, late-race dark patches, or moments where the legs and brain both need a reminder of the plan.
Best used strategically rather than all at once — unless the session has gone completely sideways and desperate measures are required. As always, practice caffeine intake during training before unleashing it on race day.
