Creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched ingredients in sports nutrition, but the format has barely changed in decades: weigh a scoop, add water, shake, drink. Per4m has taken a different approach. Creatine Sherbet is a retro-sweet-inspired sherbet that melts in your mouth — no water, no shaker, no mixing — and it is now available at Muscle Supply in two sizes.
It is not a new ingredient, and it does not claim to work differently from ordinary creatine monohydrate. What changes is the convenience: a format you can take anywhere, anytime.
What is creatine sherbet?
Creatine Sherbet combines creatine monohydrate with citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, malic acid, flavouring and sweetener to create a fizzy, zero-sugar sherbet. You pour a scoop straight into your mouth, let it dissolve and swallow. Per4m describes it as the UK's first creatine sherbet.
The active ingredient is the same creatine monohydrate found in conventional powders. Creatine increases physical performance during successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise, with the beneficial effect obtained from a daily intake of 3g.
How much creatine is in a serving?
Each scoop delivers 2.5g of creatine. A full serving is two scoops, giving 5g of creatine. If you prefer a lower daily amount, a single 2.5g scoop still contributes towards the 3g daily intake associated with the performance claim when combined with dietary sources.
- 93g tub: 30 scoops — 15 full 5g servings, or 30 days at one scoop per day.
- 310g tub: 100 scoops — 50 full 5g servings, or 100 days at one scoop per day.
Which flavours are available?
Both sizes are available in five retro-sweet-inspired flavours: Cherry Fizz, Original Sherbet, Fizzy Bubblegum Bottles, Peach Sweets and Rainbow Candy. All flavours are zero sugar.
Who is it for?
- Dry scoopers: a format actually designed to be taken without water, rather than a powder forced into that role.
- Commuters and travellers: no shaker to carry, rinse or forget.
- Anyone who dislikes chalky creatine drinks: the sherbet dissolves in the mouth instead of sitting in the bottom of a glass.
- People building a consistent habit: removing the mixing step makes daily creatine easier to stick to.
How to use it
- Pour one scoop directly into your mouth.
- Let the sherbet dissolve, then swallow.
- For a full 5g serving, take a second scoop once the first has been fully consumed.
Consistency matters more than timing. Creatine works by building up your body's stores over time, so taking it daily — on training and rest days — is more important than exactly when you take it.
Creatine sherbet versus creatine powder
Nutritionally, there is no need to choose one as universally better. Conventional powders such as Per4m 100% Pure Micronised Creatine offer a lower cost per gram and an unflavoured option that disappears into any drink. The sherbet offers convenience and a format some people find far easier to take every day. Many customers may keep powder at home and sherbet in a gym bag.
Where to get it
Per4m Creatine Sherbet is available now at Muscle Supply in a 93g tub (30 scoops) and a 310g tub (100 scoops), both in all five flavours.
Frequently asked questions
Does creatine sherbet work the same as creatine powder?
The active ingredient is the same creatine monohydrate. The sherbet format changes how you take it, not what it does.
Is creatine sherbet sugar-free?
Yes. All five flavours are zero sugar, sweetened with sucralose.
Can I still mix it with water?
It is designed to dissolve in your mouth, and the fizzy sherbet experience is the point — but the creatine itself is unaffected by how you consume it.
What allergens should I know about?
It is manufactured in a facility that processes products containing eggs, nuts, milk, soy and fish. Check the label for the most current information.
