Product Information

Full details

The Torq Explore Flapjack in Ginger Cake flavor is designed for recreational cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts seeking a wholesome, high-energy snack. Its key benefit is providing sustained energy with less fat than a traditional flapjack, making it ideal for fueling adventures. A caveat to consider is that while suitable for vegans, it contains gluten and may not be suitable for those with nut, sesame, milk, or soya allergies due to manufacturing processes. This flapjack features organic ingredients, including oats, raisins, and maltodextrin, for a moist, syrupy, and delicious energy boost.

FAQs

Is the Torq Explore Flapjack suitable for athletes with gluten intolerance?

No, the Torq Explore Flapjack contains gluten from the organic jumbo oats and is therefore not suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance.

Can I eat this flapjack as a regular snack?

Yes, the Torq Explore Flapjack can be enjoyed as a healthy, natural snack at any time of the day, not just during exercise.

What does 'less than half the fat of a regular flapjack' mean?

This indicates that the fat content per serving or per 100g is significantly lower than typical homemade or commercially produced flapjacks, which often contain high amounts of butter or oil. This formulation aims for better energy delivery and digestion during activity.

Are there other flavors available?

Yes, Torq offers the Explore Flapjack in a variety of flavors including Apple Strudel, Bakewell Slice, Banana Cake, Black Forest, and Carrot Cake, in addition to Ginger Cake.

What are the main carbohydrate sources in this flapjack?

The primary carbohydrate sources are organic jumbo oats, organic golden syrup, organic dark brown sugar, and organic maltodextrin, providing both complex and simple sugars for energy.

Does this product contain any allergens?

The flapjack contains gluten. Due to manufacturing methods, it may not be suitable for customers with an allergy to nuts, sesame seeds, milk, and soya.

How much energy does one flapjack provide?

A 65g serving of the Torq Explore Flapjack provides approximately 263 Kcal (1108 kJ) of energy.

Troubleshooting

Flapjack is dry or crumbly

This is unlikely given the product's moist and syrupy description. If received in this condition, check the 'best before' date. Consider environmental factors like prolonged exposure to heat or dryness during transport or storage. Contact the retailer if the product is significantly different from its description.

Experiencing digestive discomfort

While designed for energy, individual tolerances vary. Ensure adequate hydration when consuming. If discomfort persists, try consuming it earlier before exercise or consider a different energy source. Check that you do not have sensitivities to any of the listed ingredients, particularly gluten.

Packaging is damaged

Do not consume the product if the packaging is compromised. Contact the point of purchase for a replacement or refund.
