Frequently Asked Questions
When should I eat Energy Stroopwafels?
Any time of course, but stroopwafels are a particularly good energizing snack before a workout. Because they're flat, they're perfect to pack along on runs, hikes, or rides, or to keep stashed in your gym bag for when you need a boost.
How is an Energy Stroopwafel different from other GU Energy products?
Our Energy Stroopwafels contain carbohydrates, BCAAs, and electrolytes, similar to other GU Energy products, but in a "solid food" form. The GU Energy Stroopwafel includes organic eggs to help hold the Stroopwafel together AND adds a bit of protein, which the Gels and Chews do not have. It's ideal for a quick breakfast or pre-workout snack.
Are Stroopwafels safe for children?
Stroopwafels are safe for children, but remember that the Caramel Coffee flavor contains caffeine.
Do Stroopwafels meet my dietary restrictions?
Stroopwafels contain dairy and are Kosher. They are not vegan. Certain flavors are gluten-free.
