Create vs Beast Bites creatine gummies
Both are NSF Certified for Sport. Both are pectin-based and vegan. One is cheaper per serving and carries the full 5 g; the other has the cleaner recent lab record. Here is every number side by side, and the one question that decides it.
Affiliate disclosure: GummyGains is reader-supported. We have an affiliate relationship with Create and none with Beast Bites — if you buy through a Create link we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That is exactly why the Beast Bites case is stated in full below rather than glossed. Full policy.
The short version: Beast Bites is cheaper per gram of creatine and gives you the full 5 g in one serving. Create has two recent independent lab rounds behind it, including an ISO 17025 assay that measured 4.59 g against a 4.5 g label. Beast Bites was flagged in an earlier round and has not been independently re-measured since. If price and dose size decide it, buy Beast Bites. If the published testing record decides it, buy Create.

Where Beast Bites genuinely wins
On arithmetic alone, Beast Bites is the better buy. Subscribed to the 150-count pouch you are paying $1.20 for a full 5 g dose. That is the cheapest certified gummy dose we have priced anywhere, and it undercuts Create's best reachable price by about 15% per gram. It also gives you the whole 5 g in one serving rather than 4.5 g, so nobody has to think about whether the dose is "close enough".
The eight NSF Certified for Sport flavour listings are real and verifiable in the public registry — more flavour-level entries than Force Factor or Lemme carry. For a tested athlete under a banned-substance policy, that certification is the thing that matters, and Beast Bites has it.
Where the Beast Bites case weakens
An independent HPLC round run by NOW Foods listed Beast Bites among products that did not meet label claim, with elevated creatinine. Creatinine is what creatine degrades into, so an elevated figure points at either a manufacturing problem or heat and moisture exposure. Create and Con-Cret appeared in the same round. The difference is what happened next: Create appears in two later published rounds and passed both, including the ISO 17025 assay that measured 4.59 g. Beast Bites does not appear in either. There is no published independent measurement of a current Beast Bites batch confirming or clearing the earlier result.
NSF Certified for Sport is not the same test. It verifies that a product does not contain banned substances and is made under audited conditions; it is not a per-batch potency assay published for shoppers to read. A brand can be legitimately certified and still have an open question about how much creatine survives to the end of shelf life. That is the gap here.
How to decide in one question
Ask yourself which risk you would rather carry.
- You care most about cost per gram and getting a full 5 g. Buy Beast Bites. You will pay roughly 15% less per gram of creatine, and the certification is genuine.
- You care most about the published testing record. Buy Create. It is the only gummy in our set with a recent, independent, ISO 17025 number that came in above its own label.
- You are a tested athlete. Either works — both are in the NSF registry. Check the specific flavour you are buying, because certification is granted flavour by flavour, not brand-wide.
- You want sugar-free. Neither. Both contain cane sugar. Our sugar-free comparison covers what is left.
What we actually recommend
We keep Create as our pick, and the reason is narrow rather than sweeping: it is the only gummy here whose creatine content has been independently measured recently and came back above label. Fifteen percent per gram is a real saving, and if that is the number that matters to you we would not argue you out of Beast Bites. But our testing-record criterion is the one we have applied to every brand on this site, and applying it consistently puts Create in front.
If you take Create, the 20% code below is the cheapest route we have found to it — $38.40 for a 90-count tub, which is $1.28 a serving against the $60 list price.

Questions
Is Beast Bites NSF Certified for Sport?
Yes. Eight Beast Bites flavours appear individually in the public NSF Certified for Sport registry: Hawaiian Fruit Punch, Pink Lemonade Squeeze, Simply Sweet Strawberry, Sour Peach Rings, Sour Watermelon Splash, Sweet Blue Raspberry, Sweet Strawberry and Tropical Mango Citrus. Certification is granted flavour by flavour, so check the one you are buying.
Which is cheaper, Create or Beast Bites?
Beast Bites, on a per-gram basis. Subscribed to the 150-count pouch it works out at about $1.20 for a full 5 g dose. Create through our 20% link is $1.28 for a 4.5 g serving, which normalises to about $1.42 per 5 g. That is roughly a 15% advantage to Beast Bites.
Does Beast Bites have more creatine than Create?
Per serving, yes: 5 g against Create's 4.5 g, both brand-stated. The relevant caveat is that Create's 4.5 g label has been independently checked and measured at 4.59 g, while the only published independent measurement of Beast Bites flagged it for not meeting claim with elevated creatinine.
Why was Beast Bites flagged in a lab test?
An independent HPLC round commissioned by NOW Foods listed it among products not meeting label claim, with elevated creatinine — the compound creatine degrades into. Create and Con-Cret were flagged in the same round. Create appears in two later published rounds and passed both; Beast Bites does not appear in either, so the result stands unrevisited rather than confirmed.
Are either of them sugar-free?
No. Create contains cane sugar, and Beast Bites lists both cane sugar and tapioca syrup. If sugar-free is a requirement, neither belongs on your shortlist — see our sugar-free comparison for the brands that do qualify.
