GU Energy Labs recently expanded its assortment of flavored Energy Gel products with a new naturally flavored variety that boasts the taste of Toasted Marshmallow. The slightly sweet Energy Gel is packed to provide 100 easily digestible calories and help the body refuel with carbohydrates, sodium and amino acids, which is essential following periods of high activity.
On its site, GU Energy even shares a recipe for 'Performance Rice Crispies,' which can be made using crisped rice cereal, a small amount of coconut oil and two packets of its Toasted Marshmallow Energy Gel in place of real marshmallows.
Some of the other inventively flavored Energy Gel products from GU Energy include Caramel Macchiato, Gingerade and Salted Watermelon.
