Ninja Swirl by CREAMi

You’ll find yourself marveling at how the Ninja Swirl by CREAMi brings the joy of an ice-cream parlour into your kitchen. It’s not merely an ice-cream machine—it adds the thrill of soft serve, cleverly delivered through a built-in nozzle that feels interactive every time you use it. With its Creamify Technology® and soft-serve capability, you can turn almost anything—from a simple single-ingredient fruit sorbet to a protein-enriched, lower-calorie dessert—into something reminiscent of a store-bought treat, with full control over the ingredients. 

Priced at an Australian recommended retail of AUD 549.99, this model arrived on local shelves in 2025 as the next generation of Ninja’s CREAMi line. It comes with a two-year warranty, free shipping on orders over $100, and is clearly marked as high risk of selling out—so if you’re keen to have one on your bench, it’s worth acting sooner rather than later. 

Inside the box, you’ll find a solid 800 W motor base featuring Soft Serve Creamify Technology®, two 470 ml CREAMi Swirl tubs complete with nozzles and storage lids, a dispensing lid with a swirl press, an outer bowl and lid, the Creamerizer™ paddle, a pull-out drip tray, and more than 20 handcrafted recipes to spark inspiration. The machine stands 38.5 cm wide, 25.5 cm deep and 44.5 cm high, weighs about 9.25 kg, and has a power cord around 0.9 m long. 

Perhaps most impressive is its versatility: there are 13 one-touch programs, split between six soft-serve options—Ice-Cream, Lite Ice-Cream, Fruit Whip, Frozen Yoghurt, Soft-Serve Gelato, and CreamiFit—and six scoop options—Ice-Cream, Lite Ice-Cream, Gelato, Sorbet, Frozen Yoghurt, Milkshake—plus an extra Mix-in function. The CreamiFit program is particularly clever, aimed at making high-protein, lower-calorie treats by whipping air into the mix to deliver a lighter, yet still creamy, texture. 

Operation couldn’t be simpler in practice. You prepare your base—be it indulgent or health-focused—freeze it in the provided tub for 24 hours, then slot the tub into the outer bowl, secure the lid, and let the paddle do its work. If you choose soft serve, the dispensing nozzle and three-speed handle make pulling those perfect swirls delightfully easy, yet mess-free. 

Cleanup doesn’t slow things down either. All key components—pints, lids, plunger, paddle and drip tray—are top-rack dishwasher safe and BPA-free, meaning less hassle and more time savouring your creations. 

This clever machine isn’t just about decadent treats—its precise control over ingredients means it’s suited to a broad range of dietary needs: low-sugar, dairy-free, nut-free, high-protein or vegan options are all within easy reach.. Whether you're craving something indulgently rich or focused on macro-conscious nutrition, the flexibility is impressive.

In terms of design, it strikes a smart balance between functionality and kitchen-friendly presence. While solid and sizeable, it won't dominate your countertop, and its sleek finishes—platinum silver in colour—give it a refined, modern look. 

By mid-2025, this new iteration had already swept up considerable attention overseas—earning rave reviews, topping bestseller charts, and being dubbed the “soft-serve equivalent of Mr Whippy at home” in multiple outlets. That level of buzz suggests it’s both well-received and genuinely enjoyable to use.

To wrap up, if you’re looking for a way to mix fun, flavour, and creative control, this unit handles it all with ease. From scoopable gelato to soft-serve swirls, from protein-packed desserts to allergy-friendly options, it’s a versatile countertop companion that feels thoughtful in its design and surprisingly doable to operate—even if you’ve never made ice-cream before.
