Have you heard of the Ninja CREAMi? While this countertop appliance launched in 2021, it's been all of TikTok of late as more and more people buy into this clever way to make "healthier" frozen treats.
If you've escaped the CREAMi hype so far, I recommend you go investigate. The gadget has triggered a wave of protein shakes, smoothies, and even lattes turned into frozen treats that taste delicious without derailing your fitness goals, and it can get a little bit addictive watching video after video of creative content creators coming up with ideas for what to put in it, and flavor combinations to try.
While the CREAMi isn't bank-breaking, it's still $200 — not necessarily an impulse purchase. But if, like me, you've been hovering over the add to basket button for a little while, this might be just what you need to push you over the line — a $50 discount.
Yes, the Ninja CREAMi is on sale for $149, at Walmart right now — it's the best price we've seen on it, and since we first shared this deal, which is still live now, hundreds of our readers have bought one.
Ninja CREAMi
So, how does the Ninja CREAMi work? You simply fill its pint with your chosen ingredients. I've seen recipes using almond or coconut milk with protein powder, or yogurt and fruit. But this is where you can get creative — if you enjoy unconventional food combinations like peanut butter and potato chips, this is your chance to create the frozen concoction of your dreams that you likely won't find in stores.
Once the pint is filled, pop it in the freezer for 24 hours. Then, place the frozen block in the CREAMi and watch it work its magic, transforming it into a soft, creamy frozen texture in minutes. While I mentioned the ice cream functionality earlier, this wonder machine can also whip up sorbets, milkshakes, and more. Now priced on sale at $149, my math tells me it’s equivalent to about 25-30 pints of Halo Top ice cream. Pays for itself in no time, especially if you're a fan of lighter treats.
There are two versions of the CREAMi currently on sale. This deal is on the cheaper model, the 7-in-1, which has settings for ice cream, sorbet, lite ice cream, gelato, milkshake, smoothie bowl, and mix-in. The Deluxe model is the 11-in-1, which adds in slushy, Italian ice, frozen drink, Creamiccino, and frozen yogurt settings into the mix.

The TikTok viral Ninja CREAMi whips up frozen treats like ice cream, sorbets, and milkshakes with almost any ingredient. Simply freeze your desired mix-ins for 24 hours, then pop the frozen block in the machine. In minutes you have a customized creamy treat. Some go the traditional route with dessert recipes using heavy cream, sugar, and such, but for many, it’s struck a chord of its adaptability to healthier ingredients, turning even plain Greek yogurt, fruit, and protein powder into a delicious “ice cream.”
And for someone like me who cares about style, the CREAMi does look good. It's not as aesthetic as, say, one of our favorite coffee makers, but it's also not as big either at 7" wide. It means it's easier to store away when you're not using, whether in a pantry, cabinet or behind a breakfast cabinet door.
If you care about kitchen counter appeal, there are versions of the Deluxe CREAMi that comes in colors like Mint, Aqua and Platinum Silver, and you can find these CREAMi versions at a good price at QVC.
All of this is to say that the Ninja CREAMi is already in my cart, and once I finish this piece, I'll be checking out. I know I'm not the only one eyeing this magical device, so if you're interested, grab it now. Who knows when it might sell out again!
The Deluxe version of the Ninja CREAMi has 4 extra settings for more versatility, and we found another great discount on it at QVC. This offer comes wth extra pint receptacles, too.

You know those impossibly foamy lattes? Well, achieving that perfect fluff is easier than you think with this little handheld milk frother — a favorite trick on TikTok. Apart from coffee, I've seen it used for matcha, pancakes, and even some unexpected recipes, like the viral cloud eggs. Offered in every color of the rainbow, they make for fantastic gifts, too.

We all have that one drawer designated for plastic bags, which somehow takes on a mind of its own. You could, of course, leave the plastic bags in their box, but this often spells disaster as the bags fall into disarray. The viral solution? This beautiful bamboo plastic and foil organizer. Boasting a designated space for each bag size (snack, sandwich, quart, and gallon), and even for wax, foil, and plastic wrap, it turns your junk drawer mess into art.

TikTok loves an air fryer — any air fryer. But this Drew Barrymore-designed variety is no regular cooking appliance. For one, it's quite small, perfect for limited counter space. It's also beautiful (hence the name of Drew's line), which is incredibly rare for an air fryer (they are definitely not one of the more aesthetically pleasing kitchen items). At $30, it's impossible to go wrong for this fan-favorite item.

You’ve seen the TikToks — If you’re not traveling to Italy this summer, this fresh pasta maker is the next best thing. It kneads and shapes two to three servings of fresh pasta in shapes like spaghetti, fettuccine, or penne. Simply add in your ingredients and voila! Magic. According to its stellar reviews (4.4 out of 5 stars from 1,775 reviews), it’s life-changing for any at-home chef.

When it comes to curating that minimal barely-there clean fridge look, it’s all about the acrylic organizers. First step? This egg organizer, which makes your eggs appear like they’re floating. At just about $20, you'll never keep your eggs in their cartons again.

I see this roll-up dish rack pop up on my FYP a few times a week, and it’s easy to see why. It’s made out of durable stainless steel rods, allowing the water to drip directly into the sink rather than into a tray underneath. I’ve seen it used for dishes, utensils, and even for washing produce. Plus, when you’re done, it rolls right up! Perfect for smaller kitchens. From what I’ve seen, it’s an absolute game-changer.

There’s something about a glass container that seriously elevates a pantry or countertop. This one takes it a step further with its dispenser design, allowing you to retrieve any dry good at the touch of a lever. Personally, I'd use this for cereal — a very Khloe Kardashian-esque serving method, if I do say so myself.

The Breville Barista Express is a coffee lover's holy grail. While it was already a cult favorite prior to TikTok, the platform reminds us of its ultra-precise skills: grinding, dosing, extracting, and creating perfectly silky smooth microfoam milk. Essentially, it recreates the specialty $8 type lattes and looks stunning on any kitchen countertop.

Rounding off this list is an absolute must. Complete with 6-7 large compartments, and even a knife block to keep cutlery upright, all done in warm, luxe-looking bamboo wood, it's one of those small investments that offer a big return. It might be weird to call a utensil drawer elegant, but from the TikToks I've seen, this appears that is the case. And if you don’t believe me, trust the raving reviews (4.8 out of 5 stars over 7,915 reviews).
