FAQ

How many calories are in each CLIF Blok cube?: Each cube contains 33 calories. The serving size is 3 cubes (half a packet), which delivers approximately 100 calories and 24g of carbohydrates. A full packet of 6 cubes provides approximately 200 calories and 48g of carbohydrates.

How and when should I use CLIF Bloks during a ride?: Eat half a packet (3 cubes) 15 to 30 minutes before activity to raise blood sugar. During activity, eat 3 to 6 cubes every 20 to 30 minutes to maintain energy. Bloks are semi-solid and absorb more slowly than gels, so factor that into your timing. Always consume with water.

What is the difference between Margarita, Salted Watermelon, and other flavors?: Margarita contains 3x the sodium of standard flavors, making it the highest-sodium option in the lineup. Salted Watermelon contains 2x the sodium. Both are designed for heavy sweaters, hot conditions, or long efforts where electrolyte replacement is critical. Standard flavors contain approximately 50mg of sodium per serving.

Do I need to drink water with CLIF Bloks?: Yes. Always consume CLIF Bloks with water. Unlike isotonic gels, Bloks are semi-solid and work best with adequate hydration. The water aids absorption and helps you get the most from the carbohydrate content.
