Messina has launched a new picnic pie for your first official outing of the season. Behold, Messina’s new Iced VoVo Bavarian, inspired by Australia’s favourite biccy.

Move over Sara Lee, this Bavarian means business. The new frozen treat is made from a coconut biscuit base, layered with coconut bavarois, raspberry bavarois and raspberry gel, and topped with raspberry marshmallow and desiccated coconut. It’s decadent and rich, not to mention easy on the eyes.

Made with mousse rather than gelato, the nostalgic dessert can be safely stored in an esky or cooler bag for several hours before eating, assuming you can wait that long.

To take advantage of this sweet, sweet deal, you can order your Bavarian online at gelatomessina.com from Monday, September 20 for pick-up September 24 – 26. Each Bavarian is priced at $38 and serves 6-8.

Demand for Messina’s limited edition desserts has grown so high that they’ve had to allocate each store a different ordering time slot, so head to the website to see exactly when you’ll need to place your order.
