The Ninja CREAMi, a popular home ice cream maker capable of producing a variety of frozen desserts, is currently discounted by 25 per cent at Wowcher, bringing the price down to £162. The deal comes as the UK continues to experience a heatwave, with many seeking ways to cool down.
Discount Details and Availability
Wowcher VIP members can purchase the gadget for even less, at £157. The offer requires customers to set up a free Wowcher account. Alternatively, the CREAMi is available at Currys for £199. The device sold out directly from Shark Ninja during the June heatwave, so interested buyers are encouraged to act quickly.
Product Features and Capabilities
The Ninja CREAMi can whip up a range of frozen treats beyond ice cream, including gelato, sorbets, and milkshakes. It features seven automatic settings to produce desserts "at the touch of a button," according to Wowcher. The compact design fits comfortably on any kitchen worktop. Purchasing the CREAMi includes three 1L dessert tubs, storage lids, a creamerizer paddle, and a recipe guide, though ingredients are sold separately.
Versatility and Dietary Options
The device is adaptable, capable of making post-workout smoothies as well as indulgent desserts. Users have complete control over ingredients, making it suitable for low-sugar, dairy-free, keto, or vegan recipes. To create a dessert, users pour ingredients into the supplied tubs, freeze the mixture for 24 hours, then place the frozen block into the mixing bowl. The creamerizer blade rapidly shaves the ice to produce the finished dessert.
Considerations and Alternatives
The machine is notably noisy, making it less ideal for late-night use. It requires 24 hours of freezing time, necessitating forward planning. Some users report that the initial spin can yield a crumbly consistency, requiring additional spins or a splash of water. For a more affordable alternative, the Cuisinart Freeze Wand Ice Cream Maker is available at Lakeland for £79.99, reduced by £20.
