An Introductory price of $5. Not sure how they taste, but I guess at half the price, its worth a try! The range has 4 new flavours.

Mango & Salted Coconut
Fresh Kensington Pride mango sorbet entwined with Murray River Salted Coconut sorbet, swirled with Kensington Pride Mango sauce and topped with toasted coconut flakes.

Vanilla Bean & Peanut Praline
Rich three fold vanilla bean ice cream, topped with a sweet & salty peanut praline and dark chocolate sauce.

Roasted Hazelnut
A unique MESSINA hazelnut sauce swirled through indulgent chocolate gelato, topped with roasted hazelnuts all the way from Cortemilia in Italy.

Dulce de Leche
This one of a kind flavour is made with milk chocolate ice cream, MESSINA’s trademark Dulce de Leche sauce, mixed with chocolate coated biscuit pieces

      I can see why Messina is popular. With hipster locations in Surry Hills, Darlinghurst and Bondi - It was more often than not, the desert before the real desert on a Saturday night when I was dating a few years ago…..if ya know what I mean ;)

        You can't get yarra river salt anymore, too contaminated by OBikes.

      What about Brisbane River Salt Caramel Sorbet? Doesn't that sound great?

      It's interesting how they come up with these titles, when we see it, they knew someone would try it and then they cut the lines.

    Been wanting to check these out. The packaging doesn't even have a photo of what the ice cream looks like so you're going in blind. I hate when they do that. No way I was going to put down $10 to find out.

  • anikam on 21/01/2019 - 18:38

    I bought the mango one recently and it was so damn good. Definitely worth picking some up at half price.

    • Avolette on 21/01/2019 - 22:22

      Can confirm the hazelnut one is delicious! Not as good as the real Messina but much better than the standard drumstick.
      At $10 for 4 ($2.50), it's not too bad compared to the $4.80 single scoop price point at Messina (although the drumstick is much smaller), but definitely worth picking up some for $5 a box!

  • Bandicute on 21/01/2019 - 18:40

    I enjoyed the mango one but the salted caramel was nothing special. Will pick up the last two with this deal to try!

    • lostn on 21/01/2019 - 19:31

      can you upload a photo next time you open one? With no photos on the box, you're plonking down $10 blind.

        At least two of them are gelato or sorbet with no mention of ice cream.

        • [Deactivated] on 21/01/2019 - 22:22

          Incorrect. There's only one flavour in this range with a gelato base. The rest are ice cream or sorbet.

          • lostn on 21/01/2019 - 22:27

            @[Deactivated]: So basically exactly as I said.

            At least two of them are gelato or sorbet with no mention of ice cream.

            (I don't like sorbet either)

      Honestly, I kinda agree. They're everywhere now. They're on Tim Tams and now Peter's. I remember the days when they only had one store (Kings cross).

      But that said, it does sound like they are committed to putting out a high quality product (in their stores, i.e. their main product). I won't elaborate in case I sound like hailcorporate but they detail this on their website.

      I would try this for $5 though.

        • ippy on 22/01/2019 - 12:48

          I actually tried them for the first time ever - but in Italy lol. It was really good… Fior di latte was so good. Hazelnut good. I have yet to try them here in Sydney but I might be a convert…

          They only have 2 stores for now :) They're quite expensive though but I think they're a bit better than Messina.

          • virhlpool on 22/01/2019 - 18:23

            @ippy: They can do better with their flavours though. A lot of their flavours are plain and simple though rich. I love their pistachios and mango flavours.

    Tried Mango&Salted Coconout the other day, tastes great, but not worth $10, but for $5 it's great bargain.

    • virhlpool on 21/01/2019 - 23:50

      You mean it's worth $7 or so.

    • CookieJacker31 on 22/01/2019 - 09:54

      Sounds like $5 is the sweet spot.

    Perfect. Was waiting for this.

  • robbiey on 22/01/2019 - 08:52

    For $5 this is a good deal. But for those thinking this is anywhere close to the Ice Cream they sell in Messina stores then you will be disappointed. This is a drumstick with some minimal improvements at best.

  • LeoPan on 22/01/2019 - 09:11

    I like the Ice cream from IKEA :-)

  • rawm on 22/01/2019 - 09:45

    Saw these for $10 at my local Woolworths (Gladstone Park VIC) today for $10. There was about 100 boxes, and nobody had touched them. These will be $4 within the month IMO.

  • porsche26c on 22/01/2019 - 10:46

    Messina ice cream is absolutely sub par. Ordered a five flavour tub and 4 out of the 5 tasted bad. Choc mint tasted horrid -used like peppermint tea in it or something. The lemon was so bitter. How you get choc fudge wrong was beyond me. Way below standard. I wish gelato massi was still open.

  • GourmetFoodie on 22/01/2019 - 12:15

    Messina is so over rated. Tastes nothing like real Italian gelato. The couple of times I've tried it I've ended up throwing my cup in the bin.

    • humdingaling on 22/01/2019 - 12:45

      Certainly hope so…..otherwise would have to call you a tosser!

    • ippy on 22/01/2019 - 12:50

      Yeah, good Italian gelato is dense and COLD. Messina is neither unfortunately. Salted caramel used to be my favourite but I think they fu cked with it. Sad.

  • nagev5 on 22/01/2019 - 16:11

    Nice deal. Wonder if they have any dairy-free variety.

  • nubzy on 23/01/2019 - 12:18

    The ice cream in the vanilla bean and peanut praline is beautiful, creamy and smooth, nothing like the stuff in regular Drumsticks. But didn't taste any praline at all. Definitely not worth $10 and $5 is still pricey IMO for what you get, but it's not bad, better than most packaged ice creams.

  • Ozskillz on 23/01/2019 - 17:02

    $5 is a good deal to try those flavours thanks! Inside the collaboration: https://gelatomessina.com/blog/petersdrumstickmessinacollab

    I have a self imposed $1 per ice cream rule so only willing to pay $4 for a pack of 4.

    I usually stock up when the offers are on so drop your price Woolies and I might try some.

  • zzzman on 23/01/2019 - 20:06

    Got three boxes for this deal and just having the mango and coconut now.

  • boredrandom on 23/01/2019 - 21:33

    I just tried the Duche de Leche and it was pretty average tbh. The biscuit pieces aren't crunchy at all… A bit disappointed with Messina. Hopefully the coconut and mango one is better.
    Still, decent value at half price.

  • baronVoNGotha on 25/01/2019 - 14:33

    munching on one of these i could only think of how very disappointing and cheapy flavourless it was . the connoisseur hazelnut sticks are waaaaaaaaaay better. eg. milk chocolate over compount chocolate. and more hazlnuts. and creamier flavourful ice cream.

    • mrhugo on 30/01/2019 - 20:39

      I know, I got a box just to see and my god, what a disappointment. Check out the ingredients, it's a race to the bottom in terms of quality. Compound chocolate, FFS!. I suspect it was made by an accountant and a some guy in a lab coat.

      It's not just average, its bad, empty calories!

      This Messina/Peters is terrible compared to the Connoisseur range.
