You don't necessarily need gels, and admittedly most of them taste terrible
Try something like flapjacks or even rice cake [1]. It's more suitable as bike nutrition because of the ergonomics but at the end of the day it's all just carbs.
If you don't like any of that or the solid food is difficult to swallow in a race, you can try just water mixed with maltodextrin. It's a very slight sweet taste.
