The Ninja Swirl by Creami is conquering the hardest type of ice cream to make at home

With the new Swirl by Creami, Ninja is looking to conquer the final challenge of making ice cream at home: soft serve. And while the machine is a bit bulky, the results speak for themselves.

Granted, Ninja’s latest two-in-one contraption takes a few extra steps to get to the end zone, but the results really do speak for themselves (assuming you started with a decent recipe, of course). Regardless, similar to what the original Creami did for ice cream by distilling the tech from a $5,000+ Pacojet into a $200 machine regular folk can actually afford, the Swirl is now doing the same for soft serve. Right now, even the cheapest single-purpose machine on the market costs almost $1,000, while the $350 Ninja Swirl can do everything the old Creami could do (which includes making milkshakes, sorbets, gelatos and more) plus practically every type of soft serve you can imagine — all in one device.
