Yes, Grynd Energy Waffles and Endurance Butter are safe for kids and teen athletes. Our energy snacks are made with clean, simple ingredients and are commonly used by youth athletes in sports like hockey, soccer, and running as a pre-practice or game-day carb source.

None of Grynd’s energy snacks contain caffeine, making them a suitable option for younger athletes when used as part of a balanced diet.

Grynd’s organic energy waffles are made in Canada, specifically in Norwich, Ontario. They’re produced by a Dutch family who follows a traditional Dutch stroopwafel recipe, preserving the craftsmanship and quality behind every waffle.

Yes, Grynd energy waffles and endurance butter can absolutely be eaten outside of training or workouts. Many customers use Grynd energy snacks as:

• A quick morning snack
  
• Quick energy between classes/work
  
• Pre-workout energy
  
• Easy calories during busy days
  

Grynd energy snacks are designed for athletes, but perfect for everyday fuelling.

Endurance Butter is a high-calorie, slow-burning fuel made from natural ingredients like peanut butter, honey, cocoa, and MCT oil. It’s designed to provide sustained energy during longer or harder efforts.

Many athletes use Endurance Butter as an energy gel alternative, offering steady fuel and easy digestion without the spike or crash common with traditional energy gels.

Grynd Energy Waffles are made with real Canadian maple syrup, clean ingredients, and a recipe developed by endurance athletes. Unlike traditional energy snacks or gels, they digest easily and provide steady, high-carb energy without the “gel gut bomb” or sugar crash.

They’re designed to be a more natural, easy-to-eat fuel option for training, racing, and long efforts.

You should eat an Energy Waffle about 20–30 minutes before training for quick, clean carbohydrates and fast energy. They’re also commonly eaten during long workouts like runs, rides, hikes, and hockey games when athletes need an easy-to-digest fuel boost.

Energy Waffles provide steady energy without stomach discomfort, making them ideal before or during endurance efforts.

Endurance Butter is best used when you need long-lasting, calorie-dense energy to support extended or demanding efforts. Athletes commonly use it:

• During long workouts like runs, rides, or hikes for steady mid-session fuel
  
• Between hockey periods for fast, reliable calories
  
• After training to support recovery and replenish energy
  
• Any time you need a calorie-dense snack without stomach discomfort
  

As an energy gel alternative, Endurance Butter delivers smooth, sustained fuel without the crash.

How much Endurance Butter you should take depends on your effort length and intensity.

• 32 g pouch: Ideal during training or shorter sessions when you need quick, calorie-dense fuel
  
• 125 g spout pouch: Best for long events, extended training days, or post-training recovery
  

Most athletes use one 32 g pouch every 60–90 minutes, adjusting based on workout intensity and energy needs.

Endurance Butter should be stored at room temperature. Because it’s made with natural ingredients, it can become firm in cold conditions and won’t dispense as easily.

For best texture and performance, keep Endurance Butter warm and avoid storing it in cold environments.
