I'll stop the world and melt with you

Not only does the Ninja Creami make terrific desserts that'll make every night Milkshake Night — it looks good doing it! Says this reviewer, "The Ninja Creami is really pretty amazing. I tried it out with fruit I already had on hand, and made banana sorbet that turned out so creamy I could eat it with a spoon. The pint container holds whatever you make and has an airtight lid so you can pop it in the freezer if you don't finish it all. Of course because it's a Ninja product, you know it's good quality. But, it's also quite beautiful to look at."

And this satisfied customer who titled their review Yum! reports, "Wow! It's so easy to use and makes such awesome Ice cream! If you like to control what goes into your food, even ice cream, this is the machine for you. I'm glad there are two containers to make ice cream because you can make more than one flavor at a time. And it's so simple that your children can even make it! We are all loving the Cream from Ninja!"
