Nice experiment!
I like sugary stuff. Not the gels, but chocolate nut bars are nice.
I mist be careful bot to eat too much. I have configured alerts in my garmin navigation for hydration (30 min) and eating (60 min). That surely does help me since I tend to forget to eat during longer rides.

I like the nut bars too for normal rides. The ones I buy have 17g of carbohydrates. For competitions they don't work for me, too much fiber to digest when the body is busy with the effort. I'm becoming a huge fan of grape juice: 28g of carbohydrates in 100ml and also tastes great.
