About
Resilience Is A Recipe:
We’ve always been told performance is a ‘formula’ — an equation of macronutrients — without any consideration for what the human body actually needs or can use.
Instead, Avanti is baked for real staying power, helping athletes push on when fatigue kicks in.
Pecans and sea salt combine to create a natural electrolyte profile that replenishes performance minerals lost through sweat, helping you sustain effort and pace, while the sweet-savoury taste battles flavour fatigue too.
All cooked up with balanced carbohydrate and protein, with 36g steady-release glucose & fructose that fuel you to go the distance, and 4.5g plant protein that helps you grow ready for the next one.
When it all comes from real ingredients, you don’t have to compromise on health, performance or flavour. You just get a bar that lives up to the same uncompromising standards you set for yourself.
Because resilience is a recipe, and nature had it all along.
Great Tasting. Just ask Veloforte's awards:
With 50 Great Taste Gold stars, more than any other nutrition brand Veloforte knows of, Veloforte is proud of everything it cooks up, including this winning bar.
Baked not faked:
Not an artificial ingredient in the kitchen, Veloforte's natural energy bars are made with real ingredients, giving you health benefits beyond macros.
How & When To Use:
Veloforte energy bars are designed for athletes fuelling efforts measured in hours, not minutes. Delivering up to 36g of natural carbohydrate and plant protein from whole dates, fruit and nuts in every bar, they make long days simpler to fuel — with real food you can keep eating session after session, flavours you still want at hour four, and the confidence of knowing exactly what's in your back pocket.
Carbs per Bar:
33–36g natural carbohydrate from whole dates, fruit and nuts — slower-releasing fuel for efforts measured in hours. Mocha carries 29g, built around recovery rather than fuelling
Carbs per Hour:
One bar covers a steady hour. Pair with a gel or chews to reach the 60–90g per hour that longer, harder efforts call for
When To Take:
1–2 hours before you start, then every 30–60 minutes through a long steady effort. Take it on a climb, a flat or a natural lull — chewing takes time
Best For:
Long rides and gravel days, sportives, marathon build-up, hiking and mountain days, back-to-back training blocks, and the hours between sessions
Protein:
4.5 - 8g across the range — Plant protein from toasted nuts. Mocha runs 4:1 carbs: protein ratio, for after the session rather than during it
Texture & Chew:
A soft, real-food chew. Best at moderate effort where you can eat comfortably. For race pace or high intensity, reach for a gel or chews instead
Suitable For:
Cycling, running, hiking, trail and mountain sports, gym and strength blocks, everyday active fuelling. Every bar is gluten-free and caffeine-free; most are vegan (Ciocco & Classico contain honey)
Train Your Gut:
Whole-food ingredients support comfortable, repeatable fuelling as long-day volume builds
Fuelling Strategy:
Bars carry the long steady hours. Limon, Rosso and Tempo gels carry race pace. Fresco chews bridge the two. Rotate flavours across the range to keep fuel appealing deep into an effort.

Real Performance:
Up to 36g of natural carbohydrate and plant protein from whole dates, fruit and nuts, real food, delivering energy at the pace your body can use it.
Built For The Hours:
Whole-food carbohydrate, fats and fibre release energy steadily rather than all at once. Fuel for efforts measured in hours, not minutes.
Fuel You Still Want:
Great Taste Award-winning recipes, and the reason Veloforte's bars still get eaten at hour four. Flavour that holds up when everything else has stopped appealing.
Nothing Artificial:
No maltodextrin. No artificial sweeteners, flavours or colours. Just real-food ingredients your body already knows how to use.
Ingredient Integrity:
Every ingredient named on the pack, and every one earns its place. Radically transparent, gluten-free, and built on recipes, not formulas.

Purest electrolyte:
Built differently. Performs differently:
Most energy bars are built to hit a number on a label, grams of protein, grams of sugar, a claim on the front of the wrapper. Veloforte bars were built as recipes.
That means every decision, from the fruit and nuts Veloforte starts with to the texture, the flavour and the things Veloforte deliberately leaves out, has one purpose: fuel that performs & appeals, hours into an effort.
The result is a bar made entirely from real food, with nothing artificial, nothing unnecessary and nothing to get between your body and its best.
