Raspberry gold
My affinity for Skratch Fruit Drops every time they take me from near-bonking back to clear-headed and hammering. I prefer the raspberry flavor which is just tart enough to be palatable on a hot day.

These are pretty unique little drops. I've tried pretty much all of the other gummy products out there and these are by far my favorite! My favorite part about them is how you can bite clean into it and not get anything stuck in your teeth. It makes it much easier to eat while you are in desperate need of energy. The taste is also flavorful without being overpowering. This is crucial on those hot days.
All Skratch products are backed behind some serious #science. Check it out for yourself!

Matt FEmployeeLove My Skratch Drops :)
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I love these Skratch drops. I like how the texture is different from all other gummy chews if you're one to let the gummy dissolve and not devour the drops right away. I like how the taste isn't overwhelming and how Skratch products work well with my digestive system. Give these a try!
Travis McGrewEmployeesalty and sweat..

The taste isn't overwhelming, which is a definite plus on long days in high temperatures. Plus, rooting out gummy bits stuck between teeth and in molars gives you something to do for those two hour climbs.
Bradley GehrigGreat Flavor; hard to chew
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I am a big fan of these; the have a great flavor that is easy to put down when you're in the pain cave!
My only complaint is that they are a bit harder to chew and swallow than some others, but it's a pretty small issue; they are certainly easier to eat than the Powerbar Gel Blasts!
Eric H.great product, but gets stale fast
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Love the slightly sour tang in contrast to similar products which tend to be overly sweet. Very easy on my stomach. I found very hard to get out of the pouch whether new or stale. Got stale months before the expiration date - still edible, but very stiff and extremely sticky once you started to eat - like tear out fillings sticky.
Travis McGrewEmployeeTast so good

Go buy some
Kent ReynoldsEmployeeNot as sweet
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This chew comes with good science behind it. I certainly does not have the sweet taste like the Stinger chews. They have a sugar like coating on the outside that I did not care for much. I need more time with them to really find out if they work for me.

Awesomeness

Skratch Labs chews hit on all cylinders -- taste, texture, and effectiveness. Considerably less sweet than most anything else on the market, and these feature a subtle hint of salt.

These are a great backpacking snack, great flavor and didn't melt in the heat. Both Raspberry and Orange were really really good!
Eric H.Great product with sub-par shelf life
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Love these except I stocked up on a sale and found they started to get hard and stale after 6-8 weeks and very hard after 12 weeks - which was long before the expiration date. Still tasted fine and absolutely no spoilage, just an effort to chew and a risk of tearing my fillings out since they were so sticky.
Brennan KExcellent product

So Skratch specializes in energy and hydration, in a way with less sugar and more electrolytes which is nice. Coming from using some other brands out there, after trying these, I thought I'd pick some up for a trip I had coming up. I prefer chews over gels and most all of what I have tried and used seems to be overly sweet. Having a gel is almost like taking a scoop of sugary peanut butter and trying to swallow it. Other chews can be excessively chewy and sweet at the same time. These things were great at not being overly sweet (some salt) or chewy and at providing some energy without being overly sweet, or excessively chewy. My buddy had some of a competitor and after he tried these, we were using solely these for the rest of the trip. I highly recommend any of the flavors, give them a try, you will probably not use anything else after.

Skratch knows what its doing when it comes to replacing electrolytes. They are founded by one of the worlds leading scientists on athletic nutrition. Their fruit drops do it again. They are less sweet and offer a higher moisture content. That allows your body to better absorb the goodness in each drop.

These are great - I much prefer energy chews to gels, but most of them are too sweet. That's not a problem with these. They're just sweet enough to be enticing on a hard ride, and the flavor is great.
Ian SaukersonA snack for all types of marathons

Have you ever marveled at the unconditional enthusiasm your puppy demonstrates every time you enter the room, whether you've been gone 5 minutes or 5 days? I used to dream of being that excited about something. But now I am! Skratch Labs have made the world's first perfect fruit snack. Call it an energy chew if you like, because it does indeed give you a solid shot of carbs, sugars, and sodium when you're hitting a wall on the trail, but I could eat a case(maybe even two) of these while binge watching Netflix on a cold and rainy Sunday night. I guess you could say they are the perfect marathon food, whether that marathon involves running or not.

Yummy little drops to fuel the ride. Compared to other gummy/block options out there, these are much better sized for single bites, and the sugar coating keeps them from sticking to your fingers when it's warm out. The flavor is pretty mild and not overly sweet, which makes it easier to fuel mid-ride. All good stuff.
The only thing I would change is the packaging - it's not the easiest to open/access the drops while riding without losing a few in the process. Something more like the lined-up Clif blocks packaging would make these the perfect food.
Bryan BultEmployeelittle round drops of joy

i tried these out when i went to the Grand Canyon and was very pleased with them they are little round drops covered in sugar so goooood....
Steve M.Easier on the GI than Cliff Shot Blocks
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I tried these out on a long run last week and was really pleased. They didn't freeze solid -- it was 20 degrees outside --allowed me to slowly fuel through the run, and taste good. I've tried Cliff Shot Blocks before and have had a hard time stomaching them. My running buddy received some Shot Blocks at a race and tried them on our run last week. We ended up stopping at the local grocery store for him to use the facilities due to GI distress. We've both used these Scratch Labs Drops recently and have been pleasantly surprised.
Scotty BBest gel out there
I love the other Skratch Labs products and have switched over to only using their Exercise Hydration mix for my training rides and races. These gels taste great, go down easy even when you're hammering in a race, and don't cause any GI issues.
