Kilwins is candy shop. Really more of chocolate shop than anything. I come to buy Carmel apples for my wife. She says they are very good. Parking could be an issue since the store doesn't appear to have any dedicated to just it. There is parking on the street but during my first visit I had to park about a block away and walk. Not big deal to me but others might object. They have a variety of Carmel apples, fudge and various chocolates. All are made and packagef onsite.

We love Kilwins in general. The ice cream is my absolute favorite! But tonight Stacey made our experience even better. She was thoughtful and attentive and helped us! She gave us recommendations and was very patient with us. Can’t wait to go again!

Stopped in here after my daughter’s bday dinner and let me tell you Wow! So darn good! Ice cream was divine and lots of flavors to choose from. I got the S’mores marshmallow and it did not disappoint. I definitely want another! The pumpkin fudge was fantastic and chocolate covered almonds were perfect. Daughter got the caramel apple and it was the perfect amount caramel and the apple was very fresh. What I love about their products are that they are not overly sweet where you feel sick but have the perfect amount of sweetness. It’s definitely worth the price. Staff were friendly and helpful and that’s with us coming in an hour before closing. I was honestly very impressed! We will definitely be making this a regular stop. 😊

We were craving Michigan tastes after our recent vacation and stopped by Kilwins for some Traverse City Cherry and Mackinac Island Fudge ice cream. Friendly service, and a great selection of treats. Ended up getting some chocolates for later. Only thing I would recommend is the addition of some tables or a bench to eat the ice cream.
