As a leading supplier of nutritional gummies, it is our responsibility to ensure the products we manufacture and supply contain the active ingredients at the levels you and your customers expect.

Internal Investigations

During the development process of our new Creatine gummy, we felt compelled to investigate the levels of Creatine some brands were advertising.

Our third-party testing through Public Analyst Scientific Services found that Creatine Monohydrate was not detected in the gummies tested despite claims that they contained 1.5g of Creatine Monohydrate per gummy.

Working With Creatine for Gummies

Studies show that Creatine supplementation is effective at 3-5g per day, and this is the dosage that consumers want from Creatine supplements.

Gummies have become a popular format for consumers who don’t enjoy the taste of Creatine powder, however, the nature of Creatine makes gummy development complex for the following reasons:

  • Bitter taste – Creatine powder has a bitter taste, which makes the balance between a high strength serving and a palatable gummy tricky to achieve during development.
  • Granularity – Creatine is a granular ingredient which affects the texture of gummies and can give them a grainy mouthfeel.

It’s because of these challenges we have gone through multiple rounds of development, including trying various flavours, colours and coatings. It’s also important to us that our formulation is vegan friendly and sugar free.

Our Commitment to Quality

We are proud that tests carried out by Public Analyst Scientific Services confirmed that our gummy contains 1g of Creatine Monohydrate per gummy.
