How to use a Ninja CREAMi?

The premise of a Ninja CREAMi is that you start with an ice cream base, which can be as simple as a ready-to-drink protein shake or as complex as following a gelato recipe that requires cooking.

You then put this base into the Ninja CREAMi pint container with a lid and then freeze it for 24 hours. After that, remove the lid, place the pint into the pint hold, place the paddle into the lid, and secure it tightly.

After that, put the pint holder into the CREAMi and turn it until it locks into place. Next, select the desired option (ice cream, gelato, milkshake, etc). If after one spin your base isn’t at the desired consistency you can select the “re-spin” function.

Once the mixture is at the desired consistency, you can either consume it, or you can make a hole and add any toppings or mixes you desire. Select the “+ mix-in” button, let it run, and get ready to enjoy.
