By popular demand (and by “popular” we mean you lot wouldn’t stop asking), we’ve resurrected the 40 most-voted specials from the past year (to date). This is the perfect chance for you to stock up your freezer, on your most loved flavours that you wish you got more of when it was in-store.
Plus this year, we've also hidden a Golden Record inside the lid of one pint. Whoever discovers it gets $1000 Messina credit, along with their Greatest Hits order.
Messina 'Specials' were conceived in 2008, and ever since, we have been rotating 5 new flavours each week in all our stores. That means we release 260 specials every year, and this is your chance to get your hands on your fave releases from the last 365 days packed in handy tubs.
The details:
- Pints– All flavours will be freshly packed into individual pints. If you're working our freezer space they're 473ml each. As these are uninsulated, if you're traveling for more than 15 minutes, please bring a cooler bag.

The story behind Messina's Greatest Hits and 20 years of specials:
We’ve watched as over 4000 specials have hit the cabinet since opening. Some come and leave without so much as a whisper, whilst others make a lot of noise and are so good they make regular come backs. Always greeted with much frantic fanfare from those who know.
It’s hard to believe we’ve been around since 2002, when we opened our first Darlinghurst store on Victoria street. In those 23 years and now over 33 stores, our cabinets have seen over 4000 gelato specials and new flavours do the rounds, rotating in and out along side Messina classics. For those who don't know, Messina specials first came to fruition properly when Head Chef Donato Toce joined the team in 2008, and he made them a permanent offering. They now occupy 5 slots in our cabinet and rotate every week so there's a new flavour every Tuesday - Saturday. We've had thousands of different flavour creations over the years - some, we’re happy to forget about… like Nacho Libre (don’t ask) and Roast Chicken Sorbet, but there’s a lot that are house favourites, and that we get asked to bring back on the reg or have a special back story to them. They've become an integral part of Messina history and our story overall. So we thought we'd celebrate!
