The promotion is open to customers who follow SoftCore on social media with free ice creams issued on a first come, first served basis. The popular ice cream team will continue to trade at the Edinburgh Street Food venue on Leith Street.

Writing on their website, SoftCore owners said: “We believe that finding pleasure in the simple things is what makes life worth living. That's why we've created the most delicious treats, using only the finest ingredients.”

The Edinburgh business boast that all their ‘soft serve ice cream is made from scratch using only real cream and milk’ and in house cookies are ‘made lovingly…with absolutely no pre-made bases and no artificial colouring.’ 

The new SoftCore shop at 32 Marchmont Road will be open seven days a week between 11am and 6pm. For more information you can visit the SoftCore website
