Anyone with a sweet tooth will appreciate the Ninja Creami. While it's great for making yummy ice cream at home, it can also be used to whip up custom smoothies, gelatos, sorbets, milkshakes and more with just the touch of a few buttons.

Yahoo editor and tech expert Rick Broida is a fan of this No. 1 bestseller too. "There's a certain mad-scientist joy that comes from creating or discovering a delicious recipe," he says. "I think it's especially great for the health-minded, as it affords total control over your ingredients (unlike the pints you buy at the store)."

Best of all, it's guaranteed to stick around long after the season ends, and you don't have to worry about watering it or keeping it away from pets.

Who says a Christmas gift can't be practical and inspired? Take the genius (and much-loved) Apple AirTag, among our picks for the best Bluetooth trackers you can buy. "Apple's AirTag is one of the most powerful trackers you can get, as it leverages the iPhone like no other device can," Broida says. These handy gadgets are just the thing for loved ones who tend to lose their keys or need to keep a close eye on their luggage when traveling.
