Classic Guava

Tasting notes

Original flavour, beautiful taste of Colombian tropical Guava fruit, with a delicious lingering aftertaste, easy to digest on the go. This has been the Colombian go to energy block for over half a century.

Guava & Coffee

Tasting notes

Coffee and Colombia go together hand in hand, and this is no exception, made from Aribica coffee beans and Tropical Guava fruit.
This delicious combo has the Classic Guava hit, combined with a smooth mocha/ chocolate taste from the coffee beans (rather than the usual burnt espresso taste associated with most coffee foods and drinks).

Guava & Raspberry

Tasting notes

If you like something with a little more contrast in taste, then this is the one. The flavour combination hit, is much like a fruit pastel.
You still get the lovely guava lingering aftertaste, with a little bit of berry sharpness.

Guava & Feijoa

Tasting notes

This bocadillo has a more acquired taste that focusses on the sour notes of the Feijoa fruit flavours. The subtle sharpness is eventually surpassed by the sweetness of the guava.

What makes Guava a Superfruit?

Every Lucho Dillitos is bursting with natural guava goodness… There are two key ingredients in Lucho Dillitos Classic bocadillo: guava (85%) and sugar (15%). That’s all it takes to create a tasty Vegan, Gluten Free energy block!

Excellent source of antioxidant vitamin-C. 100g fresh fruit provides 228mg of this vitamin, more than three times the required daily-recommended intake (and 4 times more than an orange)

Rich in Vitamin-A, and flavonoids like beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein and cryptoxanthin. The compounds are known to have antioxidant properties

A very rich source of soluble dietary fiber (5.4g per 100g of fruit, about 14% of RDA)

A very rich source of potassium. It contains more potassium than other fruits like banana, weight per weight. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps controlling heart rate and blood pressure.

A moderate source of B-complex vitamins such as pantothenic acid, niacin, vitamin-B6 (pyridoxine), vitamin E and K, as well as minerals like magnesium, copper, and manganese

''A welcome change. This is your mid run alternative. In addition it is a hit of energy-boosting carbs, these blocks are also full of vitamins A and C'.'

“Bought these at the NEC Cycle Show and have eaten them all on road rides. A brilliant tasty and satisfying alternative to gels, bars or bananas! My friends loved them too and the biodegradable leaf wrapping is a nice touch - although I still take it home! Easy to open and consume on the move - I'm back for more!”

"This is a job for Lucho Dillitos Bocadillos, aka "Colombia's original energy bar": a piece of tropical Kendal mint cake wrapped in a dried leaf that is as natural as any other leaf on the road."

“

"Described as a bar and a gel in one, Lucho Dillitos Bocadillos are manufactured in Colombia, and have been tested in 30C Hong Kong heat without breaking down or becoming gloopy."

“

"A different approach to sport nutrition. Natural Energy from Columbia (Yes it’s legal) and it’s like a bar and gel rolled into one making it one block of energy."
