To celebrate National Mates Day, Snapchat and Gelato Messina teamed up to highlight the ephemeral mobile platform's emphasis on real relationships. The collab follows the launch of Snapchat’s global brand campaign, Less Social Media. More Snapchat, earlier in the year.
Oh Snap! is a limited-edition flavor that was made for the occasion and it was available for a limited time on the occasion in May. Oh Snap! was inspired the classic vanilla slice and it paired vanilla custard gelato with passionfruit puree and crunchy caramelized puff pastry pieces. Snapchat also took over the Gelato Messina Surry Hills store in Sydney for the event.
The campaign spanned several channels, including in-store activations, paid content, influencer marketing, social and email marketing, as well as in-app advertising on Snapchat.
