The present invention provides a method for obtaining a specifically-shaped crystal (specifically, spherocrystal) of a compound with good reproducibility. This method for producing a specifically-shaped crystal (specifically spherocrystal) of a compound comprises: (1) a step for preparing a supersaturated solution of a compound having a degree of supersaturation equal to or higher than a critical degree of supersaturation; and (2) a step for precipitating a specifically-shaped crystal (specifically spherocrystal) of a compound from the supersaturated solution.

An object of the present invention is to provide a crystal of an amino acid salt of HMB which is easy to handle and has high solubility, and to provide a method for producing the same. According to the present invention, the crystal of an amino acid salt of HMB can be precipitated by dissolving an amorphous amino acid salt of HMB in a solvent containing alcohol and stirring or allowing the solvent to left stand. In addition, the crystal of an amino acid salt of HMB can be precipitated by concentrating an aqueous HMB solution of an amino acid salt which has a pH of 2.5 to 11.0.
