Great product and tastes really nice

Great product and tastes really nice. Tried the blocks on my last big bike ride and they held together and gave me that much needed kick. Will be stocking up on these for my next race.

Bought some of the electrolyte bars

Bought some of the electrolyte bars as a tester for my marathon this weekend (its the nutrition on the course) and i'm glad i did so that i know to avoid them.

The caffeine ones were a bit chemically. most caffeinated gels/bars can be, but these were too much.

Tested on a long run and they did not sit well with me on my stomach. Started feeling sick towards the end of my 2 hour run.

Take aways: Probably fine on a ride or before a swim. Texture is like crumbly soap.

Hi Grant,
We appreciate you taking the time to seek out and give feedback and are sorry to hear the bars weren't to your taste preference. As you say Caffeine energy products can pose a slightly bitter taste, but we hope you enjoyed the Electro Energy bars you mentioned!

Beats all other performance nutrition

I used to use Tailwind but since riding and using Voim on the Bealach Sportive I would 100% recommend Voom for a host of reasons but essentially because; it’s so easy on your stomach, I never felt ‘over sugared’ and the bars are amazing and like all their products, are very subtle to taste which is exactly what you want.
I use Voom for training and events and so far I cannot fault any products. From searing heat and alpine climbs with zero wind to rainy Scottish road and gravel (+MTB) routes and it’s been brilliant.

tastes awful

tastes awful. has the texture of a bar of soap, and a chemical aftertaste. the caffeine ones have an even worse aftertaste. I tried the starter pack and after the 1st one I knew I didn't like them, so have resigned to just put them in my emergency pack, but even when I'm bonking and would be inclined to eat "a scabby horse" they still taste horrible and are difficult to eat. in terms of performance, they do work and gave me energy, no digestive distress to report

Hi Stuart,
We appreciate you taking the time to feedback and we're sorry the products weren't to your personal taste preference.

We're a little disappointed you felt the texture was like that of a bar of soap; this isn't a comment we've had before after thousands of people have tried VOOM - we can only think you exaggerate a little as you simply don't like the products.

Again, regarding the taste/flavours, we can appreciate they're not going to be to everyone's liking but the overwhelming majority of people who try the bars tend to feedback positively regarding taste. We find those that feedback negatively still typically like one or some of the flavours, even if they don't enjoy the others.

That being said we're pleased you felt they were beneficial in delivering energy, offered stomach comfort and can be useful in your pack as emergency calories which many events mandate you must carry!

Best wishes, Team VOOM

A boost to help recovery from Operation

Having been off training for several months due to a damaged shoulder and waiting for an operation. It as been great to get out again running and bike turbo to restore fitness. Had a small supply of Rocket bars so resupply need, that has boosted me in the restart training. Enjoy the taste, easy to take before or during exercise - Highly recommended

VOOM to buy these now

Tried these due to an offer and I am so glad I did. Having read so many reviews of pros and cons of gels and not really liking the thought of gels these VOOM products stood out to me and I am so glad I purchased them, these have helped in my marathon training and will be using them on the day. So easy to use and taste amazing.

Pocket rocket = ultra fuel

Had to post a quick appreciation note. I've been training with voom pocket rockets for the last few months and have just completed my first ultramaration. I cannot express strongly enough how much the grapefruit caffeine kick bar helped me get over the line. Like I was fully blown out and in a bad place after 34 miles but the bar was honestly like having a large man pick me up and tell me I'm doing a good job. I smashed my target of 40 miles in 8 hours and I genuinely owe it to a grapefruit pocket rocket! Thank you!!!

VOOM: My go-to nutrition to fuel well and recover hard for performance!

VOOM nutrition has been the most important addition to my training routine this year. The Pocket rocket bars are easy to digest, quick acting and dont give me a crash in long workouts.

For the last two weeks I was on a training camp in Portugal and the products were brilliant to keep up with the high intensity and big hours of training. You can tell a lot of thought has gone in to the product design.

Proudly, I'm powered by VOOM! And one thing I'm sure of is I will be on race day too🚀🚀

My go to in sports nutrition.

I've been using Voom for a couple years now and really rate their products. I always carry a few electro energy bars on my runs. The new berry and grapefruit bars are incredible. Huge fan of the recovery fudge too.

AMAZING!!

VOOM is an exceptional company. Their energy bars have fuelled my marathon training perfectly and I couldn’t recommend them enough. An excellent company with customer service at its heart, they support everyday athletes. My personal favourite is the berry VOOM bar - so yummy! Thank you VOOM!
