The Mystery Lineup
Core selected three foundational supplements for this limited-edition run:
-
Core CREATINE - Mystery Cotton Candy
The simplest formula in the lineup delivers exactly what matters: 5g creatine monohydrate per serving.
Creatine increases ATP production in muscle cells, directly supporting strength gains, power output, and muscle growth through enhanced energy availability during high-intensity training
This is instant mixing, and has no artificial colors added.

Core ABC - Mystery Cotton Candy
The ABC (Advanced BCAA Formula) goes a bit beyond basic BCAAs:
- 10g vegan fermented BCAAs (2:1:1 ratio, led by 5g leucine) -- essential amino acids your body can't produce, with leucine activating mTOR to trigger muscle protein synthesis while all three help prevent muscle breakdown during training
- 2.5g beta-alanine - increases muscle carnosine levels, buffering lactic acid accumulation to extend endurance during intense exercise
- 2.5g citrulline malate - boosts nitric oxide production for enhanced blood flow and pumps while reducing fatigue markers
- 2.5g vegan fermented glutamine - supports muscle recovery and may help maintain endurance capacity during extended training sessions

Core HYDRATE - Mystery Cotton Candy
Sold in 20-serving stick pack boxes, Core HYDRATE sets the bar for electrolyte supplements with clinical doses:
- 5 magnesium sources totaling 139mg -- ensures optimal absorption while supporting muscle function, nerve signaling, and energy production
- elevATP (ancient peat and apple extract) -- increases cellular ATP levels through mitochondrial function, enhancing strength and power output
- Senactiv (Panax notoginseng and Rosa roxburghii) -- improves endurance by clearing senescent cells and supporting VO2 max
- 1000mg taurine -- regulates cellular hydration and electrolyte balance while supporting cardiovascular function during training
- 500mg coconut water concentrate -- provides naturally-occurring electrolytes including potassium for comprehensive hydration support
The stick pack format makes this perfect for gym bags or travel.

First Impressions: Clues from the Lab
We got our hands on Mystery Cotton Candy early, and two things stand out immediately:
- It's completely colorless. Pour it in water and you get crystal-clear liquid. No dyes, no tinting, nothing. This aligns with Core's "no artificial colors" commitment across the lineup, but it adds another layer to the mystery.
- The flavor profile? We're not sure of the full profile, but it seems like there's some Honeydew flavoring! There's definitely a melon character driving this blend, wrapped in that signature Fun Sweets cotton candy sweetness. Whether honeydew is one of the three secret elements or just the most prominent note remains part of the puzzle.
The taste is exceptional. Fun Sweets and Core nailed the execution.
The Mystery Campaign
Fun Sweets crafted this flavor from three undisclosed elements. The exact combination remains hidden until participants solve the riddles and complete the quiz at CoreNutritionals.com.
Winners who correctly identify all three flavor components become eligible for prizes. The campaign runs through Halloween, adding urgency to the detective work.
