Creatine bar. Finally.

3.5g of creatine monohydrate per 50g bar. Dates, almonds, pea protein isolate, and ingredients you recognise — no shakers, no powders, no excuses not to take creatine every day.

Creatine is one of the most studied and scientifically proven supplements in sports nutrition. The problem has always been how to consume it: powders that settle at the bottom of the glass, capsules nobody wants to take to the gym, artificial flavours that are hard to swallow. CORIAL solved this simply: they put creatine in a bar. Minimal ingredients, dates as a natural base, almonds, pea protein isolate — and 3.5g of creatine monohydrate per bar. Real food with a real purpose. Available in two flavours that prove functional nutrition and pleasure are not mutually exclusive.

⚡ What is creatine monohydrate and why does it matter

Creatine monohydrate is the most studied, most effective, and safest form of creatine available. Naturally present in meats and fish, it is also synthesised by the body from the amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine. In muscle cells, creatine is converted into phosphocreatine — an immediate energy reserve that helps regenerate ATP during intense efforts. The result: more strength, more power, better recovery. Creatine monohydrate is the only form of creatine recognised by the EFSA with an approved health claim for physical performance.*

The two flavours

Per 50g bar: 3.5g creatine · 7–8g protein · 5.6–6g fibre · ~185 kcal · Natural ingredients

The role of each ingredient

🌴 Dates

Natural and energetic base of the bar. Provides fast-absorbing natural sugars — ideal for loading glycogen before training — and fibre that slows digestion. Replaces artificial sweeteners and binding agents.

🌰 Almonds

Source of healthy unsaturated fats, vitamin E, and magnesium. Contributes to the bar's dense and satisfying texture, and supports muscle and nerve function — essential during and after training.

💪 Pea protein isolate

High-quality plant-based protein with a complete essential amino acid profile, including BCAAs. Supports muscle protein synthesis before and after training, complementing creatine's effect on hypertrophy.

⚡ Creatine monohydrate (7% = 3.5g/bar)

The core functional ingredient. Increases muscle phosphocreatine stores, improves performance in high-intensity efforts, supports recovery, and contributes to gains in strength and lean muscle mass.

🌿 Chicory root fibre

Natural prebiotic (inulin) that supports gut microbiota and contributes to normal bowel function. Digestive health is essential for efficient protein and creatine absorption.

🌾 Oats

Source of complex carbohydrates and beta-glucan. Contributes to the bar's texture and to a more sustained energy release, preventing blood sugar spikes during training.

🥥 Coconut + white chocolate

Exclusive to the Creamy Coconut flavour. Coconut (3%) provides natural tropical texture and flavour. White chocolate (8%) adds creaminess and sweetness without extra added sugar — all within the formula.

🍫 Cocoa + dark chocolate

Exclusive to the Fudge Brownie flavour. Cocoa powder (4%) with dark chocolate (7%) — rich in antioxidant flavonoids with anti-inflammatory effects. An indulgent touch with real benefits for muscle recovery.

Benefits of CORIAL creatine bars

Strength and power: Creatine increases muscle phosphocreatine stores, improving performance in high-intensity, short-duration efforts — weightlifting, sprints, HIIT, CrossFit.

Muscle hypertrophy: Consistent creatine supplementation combined with resistance training is associated with greater gains in lean muscle mass, confirmed by multiple meta-analyses.

Post-workout recovery: Creatine accelerates ATP resynthesis and reduces markers of muscle damage, contributing to faster recovery between intense training sessions.

Protein + creatine simultaneously: Pea protein isolate (7–8g per bar) provides essential amino acids for muscle protein synthesis, enhancing creatine's anabolic effect in a single portable meal.

Total practicality: No scoops, no shakers, no powders settling at the bottom of the glass. A bar in your backpack pocket guarantees your creatine dose — anywhere, anytime.

Real food base: Dates, almonds, oats, and pea protein isolate as a base. No ingredients you can't pronounce. Creatine is delivered in a food vehicle your body recognises and utilises.

When to eat the bar

🏋️ Pre-workout (30–60 min before): The carbohydrates from dates load glycogen; creatine saturates muscle phosphocreatine stores.

💪 Post-workout (within 60 min after training): Protein for muscle synthesis, creatine for accelerated recovery, carbohydrates for glycogen replenishment.

📅 Non-training days: Creatine works through accumulation. Taking it on rest days keeps muscle stores saturated for the next workout.

🌅 Morning: With breakfast or as a morning snack. Daily consistency is more important than exact timing.

🎒 On the go: At work, travelling, between meetings. A bar in your pocket provides the creatine dose without needing to be near a kitchen.

🔄 Every day: Creatine is effective through consistency, not single doses. One bar a day keeps muscle levels optimised over time.

✅ EFSA approved nutritional claim

"Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise."*

This is the health claim officially approved by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and recognised by Regulation (EU) No 432/2012. It is one of the few physical performance claims with regulatory approval in the European Union — meaning there is sufficiently robust scientific evidence for the regulator to formally recognise it. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine. Each CORIAL bar contains 3.5g of creatine monohydrate — above the minimum effective threshold.
