Anyone got a Ninja Creami?

I’m a novice with mine looking for ideas!

So far I’ve made :

Strawberry (really good )
J20 Sorbet (didn’t work well)
Minty Aero (absolutely the bomb)
Snickers Mix In (big no )
Pineapple Sorbet (not tried yet)

obviously it comes with a recipe book but I’m looking for what people are actually finding works

Anyone got one and want to share ?

I have one, my partner bought it for me when I was pregnancy with my second and the salted caramel iced frappes became my absolute obsession! Tbh I spent all summer 2025 drinking these and never really tried anything else, although I did slush up some of the M&S juices a few times and they were really nice!

I don’t think I’ve got one that does Frappe, just milkshake, smoothie bowl, gelato, sorbet, ice cream, lite ice cream, mix in

Large tin mango puree (sweetened, food of the world isle Tesco, 850g, 600ml single cream.)
Makes 4 pots.. delicious!

I have the same as you.
Any tinned fruit works well for sorbet. Especially mango. And pineapple is good.

I have made gelato as in the recipe book and they were lovely but more work than normal ice cream. Worth it though!

Also experimented with replacing sugar with agave nectar and there is no difference in taste.

Also ready made protein smoothie type drinks can be chucked in and make a great healthy ice cream snack.

I'd be interested in the Minty aero.
I've made mi to chocolate chip with coconut milk.

Also made milkshakes with homemade ice cream but I feel like it's a huge amount of dairy in one go.

Not tried a smoothie bowl yet.

Yeo lemon meringue yogurt (large), 600ml single cream and sometimes some lemon curd mixed in.

And I've bought the Ben and Jerry's ice cream cookbook.. the chocolate Ice cream is lovely.. expensive but lovely..

@BluNavy So for the Minty Aero, 1 large bar, 1 medium melted, 200ml Whole Milk, 200ml Double Cream
4 x tbs caster sugar - done. It was so nice. Should’ve added chips.

Ah just realised mine is a Ninja Slushi not a Creami 🤦🏻‍♀️ will now spend the rest of the evening trying to resist temptation to google offers on the Ninja Creami…

I tend to just mix tinned fruit (apricot and peach are both particularly nice) with milk, a bit of cream, and some maple syrup, then freeze and process.

We make a lot of banana sorbet, which is much nicer than I expected it to be. Just sliced bananas, pressed down slightly before freezing.
