Machine à crème glacée molle Ninja Nc701c

If you enjoy ice cream, the Ninja CREAMi Scoop & Swirl is a fantastic way to experiment with homemade frozen treats. What I particularly like about this version is that it gives you the best of both worlds: traditional scoopable ice cream and soft serve, complete with the handle to swirl your own cones. It's a lot more versatile than simply buying a tub of ice cream from the grocery store, although it does require a little more planning. The most important thing to understand is that this isn't an instant dessert maker. You need to prepare your recipe in advance, fill one of the pint containers and freeze it for around 24 hours before running it through the machine. Once it's frozen, the CREAMi processes it into a smooth, creamy consistency, and you can use the appropriate program to make either scooped ice cream or soft serve. It takes a little forward planning, but once you get into the habit of keeping a few prepared pints in the freezer, it's easy to have something ready whenever the craving strikes. The range of possibilities is probably my favorite part. You can make traditional full-fat ice cream, lower-fat alternatives, sorbets, frozen yogurt, milkshakes, frozen custard, fruit whips and even high-protein treats using the CreamiFit programs. You can experiment with ingredients, sweetness and flavors to create something that suits your preferences, rather than being limited to whatever happens to be available in the store. There are so many combinations that you'll probably find yourself spending as much time deciding what to make next as you do enjoying the results! The soft serve function is a great addition. Being able to make a soft, creamy dessert and dispense it into a cone at home adds a bit of fun, particularly if you have family or friends around. The handle makes swirling the ice cream feel more like a proper ice cream shop experience, and it's a nice change from simply scooping everything into a bowl. I'd strongly recommend picking up a few different recipe books, too. While you can certainly experiment with your own recipes, having some tried-and-tested starting points makes it easier to get the right consistency and discover combinations you might not have considered. It's particularly useful if you want to explore lower-calorie or high-protein recipes, where the ingredients can make a big difference to the final texture. There are, however, a couple of things worth knowing before you buy. First, the machine is loud. The processing cycle is quite noisy, so don't expect to quietly whip up a late-night dessert without anyone else in the house noticing! Second, this isn't quite as convenient as grabbing a ready-made pint out of the freezer. You need to prepare and freeze your mixture in advance, and then run it through the machine when you're ready to eat. For me, the trade-off is worthwhile because I know exactly what ingredients I've put into my desserts, and the results can be delicious. Cleanup is relatively straightforward, but it isn't completely effortless. You need to clean the components thoroughly, including getting behind the seals where residue can accumulate. Removing and refitting the seals can be a little fiddly, so take your time and make sure everything is properly seated when you put it back together. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's worth remembering that there is some maintenance involved after making your treats. I'd also recommend buying a few extra pint containers. Having several recipes prepared and frozen means you can keep a selection of flavors ready to go without having to wait another day every time you fancy something different. The only catch is that you'll need enough freezer space to store them, so it's worth considering that before stocking up on containers! Overall, I'm very impressed with the Ninja CREAMi Scoop & Swirl. It offers a huge amount of flexibility, the soft serve function is a genuinely fun addition, and the ability to control the ingredients opens up possibilities beyond conventional store-bought ice cream. It does take preparation, it makes a fair amount of noise and cleaning the seals requires a little attention, but those are compromises I'm happy to accept for the results. If you love frozen desserts and enjoy experimenting in the kitchen, this is a great appliance to consider. Just remember to plan a day ahead, leave some room in the freezer and be prepared to discover far more flavor combinations than you initially expected!

Was great experience shopping off site and product is excellent! Love the soft serve making them with my granddaughter is the reason I bought it and you get to control the ingredients!

It’s broken I’ve only used it once and the part that goes into the ice cream won’t stay in the machine it’s like it’s stripped. Ninja makes it very difficult to find help it figure this out.

Trying new things everyday, and they’re turning out better than the last, I’m obsessed!!

I literally bought this the other day and it came in the mail yesterday. Last night I made my ice cream base one flavor for me and one for my partner and we just had it. Firstly the machine is so cool and user friendly and secondly the ice cream was better than most ice cream places we have tried consistency was good and it tasted creamy! We can not wait to keep making new flavors and try them out with all different kinds of customizations! Cant wait to try to figure out the swirl part! Recommend 100% already making our friends jealous with all the possibilities!!
