Why VFuel
Designed for the long haul.
30 mg Caffeine — Lineup High
At 30 mg per pack, Cafe Mocha delivers approximately 3× the caffeine of other VFuel gel flavors. This is the purposeful caffeine option — reserved for race-critical moments, night runs, or whenever you need a meaningful focus boost.†
Fast, Sustained Energy
Maltodextrin and dextrose deliver rapid carbohydrate energy through dual absorption pathways, designed to support steady output throughout extended efforts — not just the first 30 minutes.†
Amino Acid Complex†
Every pack contains L-Citrulline, L-Ornithine, and Taurine — amino acids studied for their roles in endurance performance, circulation support, and post-exercise recovery processes.
MCT Oil Included
Medium-chain triglycerides are included alongside carbohydrate sources, providing a fat-based energy substrate that metabolizes differently from long-chain dietary fats.
Electrolyte Support
Magnesium Chloride and Potassium Chloride are included to help replace key minerals lost through sweat during prolonged activity.
Made in Japan
Every batch is manufactured in Japan under strict quality standards, with a 24-month shelf life. Clean production from source to pack.
Usage Guide
When to reach for Cafe Mocha.
Night Races & Pre-Dawn Starts
The higher caffeine content makes Cafe Mocha a natural fit for ultra events with night sections, or any race that starts before you're fully awake.
Race-Critical Moments
Save Cafe Mocha for the sections where focus matters most — a technical climb, the final push, or any point where mental sharpness can influence the outcome.
Long Training Efforts
Works well during long training sessions where an extra caffeine stimulus helps you maintain quality output in the later hours.
Strategic Rotation
Use 1–2 Cafe Mocha packs at planned points in your race, interspersed with lower-caffeine flavors, to avoid accumulating too much caffeine across a long effort.
Suggested Timing
30 mg caffeine per pack. Monitor your total caffeine intake across the event — avoid stacking with other caffeine sources if you're sensitive to higher doses.
Transparency
Everything in the pack, and why.
Cafe Mocha is the highest-caffeine formula in the VFuel gel lineup at 30 mg per pack — approximately 3× the caffeine of other VFuel flavors. The deep coffee-mocha flavor comes from a Natural & Artificial Flavor blend at 3.00% w/w, the highest flavor concentration in the lineup. No fruit juices, no added fructose.

FAQ
Common questions.
Cafe Mocha contains 30 mg of caffeine per pack — the highest in the VFuel gel lineup. Other VFuel gel flavors contain approximately 11 mg each. For reference, a standard espresso shot contains roughly 60–70 mg, so 30 mg is approximately half a shot. This is a meaningful, purposeful dose rather than a trace amount — use it strategically at planned points in your race or training.
General health guidelines suggest a daily caffeine intake of up to 400 mg for healthy adults. Two Cafe Mocha packs provides 60 mg of caffeine. However, caffeine tolerance varies individually, and combining with other caffeine sources (coffee, energy drinks, other caffeinated gels) can accumulate quickly. Monitor your total intake and be aware of your personal sensitivity. Pregnant or nursing individuals and those under 18 should consult a physician before use.
This product is manufactured in a facility that handles milk-derived ingredients. FDA labeling requirements mandate that allergen declarations reflect the processing environment. No milk is intentionally added to the formula, but the processing environment cannot exclude the possibility of trace exposure. Anyone with a dairy allergy should avoid this product and consider Cool Citrus or Mountain Berry instead.
We strongly recommend consuming each gel with 4–8 oz (120–240 ml) of water. Water helps dilute the concentrated carbohydrates, supports absorption across the intestinal wall, and helps avoid the diuretic effect that caffeine can contribute to when taken without adequate fluids.
Yes — VFuel gels and drink mixes are designed to complement each other. The drink mix is caffeine-free, so combining Cafe Mocha gels with the drink mix allows you to control your caffeine intake precisely, using the gel only at strategic moments while the drink mix handles your baseline carbohydrate and electrolyte needs throughout.
