Fat stain on leather settee

[Accy cyclist]

Well i think it's a fat stain. When i say fat i mean the fat from an ice cream. I must've dozed off last night while eating a Cornetto type ice cream,only to wake up and find a mark on the settee. It's about the size of a penny. I've rubbed washing up liquid into it but it wont go. Any advice? The settee is tan in colour so it does tend to show marks,though this is the worst so far.

How can anyone fall asleep whilst eating ice cream?

Is it real leather and further, is it chrome-tanned or vegetable tanned?

I thought @Accy cyclist was anti meat, if so why the leather sofa?! And the cornetto which may contain animal fat!

Sounds like the beef flavoured cornetto.

You tried rubbing it with a baby wipe?

Ice cream and chocolate knock me out. Mind you that's probably because i've had 7 pints and three pies before.

Anti meat yes,but not anti leather or anti fat(in small doses)

You do realise leather is purely a by product of beef production sounds rather like double standards

Google says this......

Remove Ice Cream Stains From:
Leather

Gently scrape any excess ice cream from the leather. Mix a solution of mild soap in lukewarm water. Swish to create a great volume of suds. Apply only the foam with a sponge. Wipe with a clean dry cloth. If a grease stain remains, powder the area with an absorbent, such as cornmeal. Give it plenty of time to work. Gently brush the stain off the leather. If after trying the cornmeal absorbent any trace still remains, try a leather cleaner, Tannery Vintage Leather Cleaner & Conditioner. Rub it in with a clean soft cloth and allow to dry. After either method, condition the leather with Tannery Vintage Leather Cleaner & Conditioner or Fiebing's Saddle Soap.

Also a waste product of dairy farming.

Are you sure it is ice cream?

I mean, if you were watching "One of those" Sky channels before you dozed off...

Don't think there's much dairy in a cornetto

I wouldn't normally chose leather but i saw it in a charity shop and for the price i had to have it. It's one of these http://www.sofaitalia.co.uk/leather-sofas/knightsbridge-leather-sofa/ but not the one in the picture. I got it for £120 including delivery.
