About sapple
Energy gel from the Dolomites
The energy gel that actually tastes like South Tyrolean apple.
Family run, made from over 80 percent South Tyrolean apple, built for everyone pushing their limits outdoors in endurance sport.
About us
Family run. Rooted in South Tyrol.
Behind sapple is a family that has been tending apple orchards in Terlan for generations. Framed by the Tschögglberg and the Mendel pass, shaped by the warm days and cool nights of the Adige valley, our apples ripen slowly into aroma, acidity and substance.
These apples have always been the stuff real energy is made of up here. For a long time they only ended up on the breakfast table or in the juice press. Until someone had the idea of taking them where endurance is truly needed.
Roadmap
Where we are today and where we are going.
Today: apple from the Dolomites, around 25 g of carbohydrates, no artificial flavors. Up next, in the works:
Compostable packaging in development
Compostable packaging is in development. We are currently testing how long our gel keeps in it, with no compromise on freshness and handling on the go.
New recipe
We are replacing the preservative in our gel and currently testing the shelf life of the new recipe. Target: spring 2027.
More flavors
Always with apple as the base, joined by other fruits like apricot, grape or raspberry. Which one comes next is up to you.
Have your sayEvery order today brings us closer to these steps.

Harvest fresh
Our orchard in Terlan and where we are headed.
We believe real energy does not come from a lab but from nature. Our goal is a gel made from the apples of our own orchard in Terlan. With malic acid and polyphenols from the apple.
No artificial flavours, no colourings, no compromise on performance. Crisp, aromatic, intense. Exactly the apples that real endurance energy has always come from.
The science
Three sugars from the apple, zero compromise.
The apple naturally brings three sugars: fructose, glucose and sucrose. A small, targeted amount of maltodextrin balances the ratio, with glucose taking the lead.
Industrial sports nutrition does its job, but often at the expense of taste, origin and tolerability. That is exactly where sapple Power comes in: performance you can understand, from real fruit instead of a lab. A premium energy gel made from ingredients you recognise, in a language that does not sound like pharma. That is the gap. And we are filling it.
Production
From South Tyrol to the world.
The apples come from South Tyrol, sapple Power is produced in Lana, both in South Tyrol, with short distances and controlled quality.
The label is pared back, the colours come from the landscape we work in. Deep green, lime green, cream. No plastic look, no neon madness. Only what you need so you know what you are holding when you are in trail mode.
