Nuts.
Lard.100km isnt that far, even off road.
I like biscotti a lot.
Saying thay, in al seriousness I've been solving the same problem recently. My current idea is veloforte bars, at 400cal/100g they're serious. Butter etc. are around 750cal/100g.
Other bars are around similar numbers. A few a bit more. But I liked that it was made of natural ingredients.
You could make your own that would be a bit more. Cheaper too.

yeah its not crazy distances - day 1 between stranraer and new cumnock has around 150km mostly offroad with absolutely nothing inbetween, then further north there are some 130km stretches with not much around. This is more in case we get somewhere late after everything has shut or something like that.
Will definitely have a trail mix stash. Veloforte bars sound nice, I'll look into those - which ones did you find that were even more calorie dense?
At the end of the day i'm not racing so if I have to detour to a town then I can do that - but would rather avoid it if possible.

not sure if right place but - any ideas about most calory dense food to carry?
doing a ride where there will be multiple 100km+ stretches of gravel roads without any chance to resupply and aside from gels or whatever, what can I carry for emergencies that won't take up too much room/weight?
