This powder didn't perform well in the Ninja Creami. Poor texture, off flavors, or weak macros — there are much better options in the rankings.

Full Pint Nutrition Facts
Per Full Pint (pure — no Oreos)

The Review
This Chocolate Mint powder delivers a solid flavor experience; the mint note genuinely survives the Creami spin, giving the pint a refreshing finish while the chocolate base stays recognizable and rich. It spins into a consistently dense, creamy texture with no icy pockets, and the flavor intensity is strong enough to carry the pint without tasting watered down. However, the sucralose is definitely noticeable and prevents it from feeling truly dessert-like. While it performs well, the artificial sweetener makes this a pass for me, as there are better options in this flavor profile.
