Mix-In Tips & Ideas

 

 

 

Try CRUSHS

 

 

How do mix-ins work?

CRUSHS is good on it's own but when you add fun stuff it takes it to the next level. 

 

Mix-ins generally work best with a Creami. Most of the time you'll want to add them after the first spin. Make a little divot in the center of your pint, drop your stuff in along with a splash of milk, then hit the "Mix-In" button. Voila! You've now turned your base into something super special. Don't be afraid to experiment.

Can I add mix-ins before or after freezing?

Either works, but for the best texture, add heavier or delicate mix-ins (like sauces, peanut butter, cookies) after your first spin.

Do I need to measure the mix-ins exactly?

No. Our amounts are a guide. Feel free to add more or less depending on how you like your pint.

What kinds of mix-ins work best?

Frozen fruits, crunchy textures (like crushed cookies, nuts), and creamy swirls (like peanut butter or caramel) all work great.

Mix-In Tips

    •    Frozen fruits work best for texture.
    •    Add softer swirls after spinning.
    •    Adjust everything to your taste, there are no rules.
