Messina’s Cookie Pie Gets a Very Chocolatey Upgrade
On sale from 7 July 2025
Gelato Messina has given its cult-favourite cookie pie a rich new twist—now packed with crazy tasty pieces of Tony’s Chocolonely milk and dark chocolate – the impact brand on a mission to change the chocolate industry. It’s golden on the outside, gooey on the inside, and designed to be baked fresh at home.
Made entirely in-house by Messina’s pastry team, each cookie pie is crafted with the same care and obsession for quality as their famous gelato. And with winter well and truly here, it’s the ultimate stay-in dessert—served warm, melty, and best paired with your favourite Messina scoop.
Messina’s cookie pies first launched in 2021 and have taken many limited-edition forms—but this is the first time the OG classic has been reimagined with a new chocolate.
Each pie is priced at $25, with bundle options available including 500ml, 1L or 1.5L tubs of Messina gelato. Available from 7 July 2025 in all Messina stores and via delivery channels. Limited release. First come, first served.
There will also be single serve warm cookie pies available in all Messina stores (apart from Circular Quay and The Star) from 5pm each night Monday – Thursday during winter, which are $12 including a scoop on top.
To celebrate the launch, Messina has also created a limited-edition flavour that pairs perfectly with the pie—Brownie Points: salted milk chocolate gelato with lashings of caramel and Tony’s double choc brownie. Available in all Messina stores from 12 July for one week or until sold out.
By using Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate, you’re helping contribute to a more equally divided cocoa chain—joining Tony’s mission to end exploitation in the cocoa industry. Because for every bean in every bar, cocoa farmers get paid the price for a living income.

About Tony’s Chocolonely
Tony’s Chocolonely exists to end exploitation in cocoa that is widespread in the cocoa supply chain in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire where 60% of the world’s cocoa comes from. With their 5 Sourcing Principle model, they have proven that it is possible to make damn tasty chocolate and end exploitation in the cocoa value chain. Which include paying a higher price long-term for 100% traceable cocoa beans. But they don’t want to just end exploitation for the cocoa in their chocolate, they exist to end exploitation in all cocoa and invite other companies to join Tony’s Open Chain and transform their cocoa supply chains and become sustainability frontrunners.

Crazy about chocolate, serious about people.
