They're the hot new couple of the moment since they started dating in April.

So after putting on some public displays of affection, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian decided to cool things down by stepping out for an ice cream treat.

Currently staying on a yacht docked at Cannes during the annual film festival, the loved-up pair disembarked to visit a nearby ice cream parlour.

As they waited in the Up Side Down parlour for their scoops, Kanye, 34, pulled his girlfriend, 31, towards him for a tender embrace.

With the balmy summer temperatures, it looked like they had opted for some raspberry ripple and frutti di bosco flavoured ice cream to refresh themselves.

For their sweet fix, Kim opted for a low-cut, panelled nude dress, which she teamed with a pair of strappy cream heels, tying her hair up in a high ponytail.

Kanye, meanwhile, dressed down in jeans and a black sweatshirt for his stroll along the Croisette.

Clearly making the most of the warm weather, the pair were seen enjoying each others' company - holding hands and laughing.

Kim and Kanye are in Cannes as he promotes his short film Cruel Summer, due to premiere at the festival this evening.

Despite happy at being photographed together, the pair haven't been mentioning each other on their respective Twitter pages.

But with film crew a tow during Kim's recent visit to London, it looks like they won't be too private with some of their burgeoning romance appearing on her E! show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Before flying to France, the pair had been in the UK while Kanye completed the London leg of his Watch The Thrones tour with Jay-Z, as Kim promoted her fragrance and diet aid QuickTrim.

To me she looks too much like someone who is so in love with herself, that anyone in a relationship with her, looks more like an accessory. Everything about her seems very calculated and publicity seeking.

A Church going christian I see....not.....she goes from guy to guy...not very christian to me!

She uses a spoon to eat her ice cream, because she has done enough licking already!

She and Madonna wear the UGLIEST clothes, so unflattering, both of them. Kim looks matronly all the time when she wears dresses, and what is with the wearing shoes on yachts??? That is a no-no esp these spikey heels.

So Kim's in love again. Last year at this time, it was someone else. The year before, someone else. Next year...someone else. The person she truly loves these days is herself. As long as she getting the attention she cravesm, she's in love. Once they start getting fed up with her endless need for being admired, she's out of there.

he must be awfully hot in those leather trousers

Kim Kardashian and her family are the most ridiculous wastes of space and oxygen on the planet.

"They look so happy together I am so pleased for them both. Kim looking as fresh and beautiful as ever!xxxx" - sop, south west, 24/5/2012 07:55----- I know this may seem a bit harsh but anybody that thinks this superficial, shallow, utterly self-obsessed couple look good, happy, sweet whatever, need their pea-size brain examined. All she cares about is how she looks, there are far more meaningful things in the world. And yes i love moaning about her and will exercise my right to for as long as i can.

With all the money he's got, why does he wear (what looks like) the same thing all the time?! - Gemma, Chislehurst, Kent Please shut up!!!!!!!

Finally one of Kanye smiling with her!! Pretty cute! Call Kim talentless all you want, I won't argue but you cannot call Kanye West talentless!! That's just silly!!
