Overview
Good things happen when the minds behind Peters Ice Cream and Gelato Messina come together. In the summer of 2019 — centuries ago — the dessert experts unveiled a limited-edition line of gourmet Drumsticks. Fast forward to spring 2020 and the country is prepping for a summer of social-distancing on beaches and eating plenty of Messina X Peters gelato bars.
The new creation, which has just landed in the freezer aisle of your local supermarket, comes in three chocolate-coated, gooey-centred flavours — flavours you'll familiar with if you're already a Messina fiend.
You can choose from the choc hazelnut number, which comes with layers of chocolate biscuit, cocoa gelato, a hazelnut sauce and a chocolate coating; the espresso dulche de leche bar, with espresso gelato and dulce de leche enrobed in milk chocolate; or the strawberry cheesecake gelato. The latter sees biscuit, lemon-infused gelato and strawberry sauce covered in light pink chocolate.
All three flavours are available at Coles, Woolworths and independent groceries across Australia. Each comes in pop art-style boxes of four, priced at $10 per box of four. If you can't — or don't want to — leave the house, the gelato bars are also available to order Australia-wide via Couchfood.
Gelato Messina X Peters Drumstick collaboration gelato bars are available at supermarkets, petrol stations and convenience stores.
