Hotlight stores offer customers the chance to buy freshly made glazed doughnuts straight from the production line whenever the ‘Hot Now’ sign is illuminated. 

The St James store will offer six Hot Light hours a day, which is double the amount usually on offer.

Krispy Kreme’s CEO Richard Cheshire said: “We are really excited to be opening our first Krispy Kreme store in Edinburgh city centre partnering with St James Quarter. 

“We can’t wait to create more smiles and bring the magic of our iconic Hot Original Glazed doughnuts, fresh off the line, to our fans in Edinburgh.”
