Your Local Elmhurst, Illinois Kilwins Store
We’re the best chocolate, fudge, and ice cream store in Elmhurst, Illinois.
At our Kilwins Elmhurst chocolate store, we’re proud to bring a little happiness to your day. It starts with our Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream. Dozens of flavors are available, ranging from classics like chocolate and vanilla to creative flavors like Chocolate Caramel Cookies & Cream. Our ice cream provides the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day or just as a sweet, creamy treat throughout the rest of the year.
Our Mackinac Island Fudge is one of the major reasons we’re known as a staple Elmhurst chocolate store in addition to being an ice cream destination. We have Don and Katy Kilwin to thank for developing the original recipes in the mid-1900s. There’s a reason for the popularity of our fudge over the years. We still honor the original recipe as it was intended. A no-sugar-added version may also be available. Our fudge makes for a great way to treat yourself or surprise some of your favorite people.
That’s not all you’ll find at Kilwins. Caramel apples are a favorite year-round treat, but we think they’re an especially delicious way to ring in the fall season. Chocolate truffles, chocolate bars, and chocolate-dipped pretzels are only a few of the other goodies you’ll find at our store. Kilwins started as a dream back in 1947, and our commitment to providing an overall wonderful experience makes it easy to understand why we continue to flourish in the 21st century.

Enjoying treats from Kilwins is about slowing down to celebrate the little moments in life. This charming community has many places and activities where treats would be the perfect accompaniment. Sit in one of the many local parks on a beautiful day with an ice cream in hand, rent a book from the library and relish some chocolates while you read, or dig into a box of caramels. Every treat helps make an average day a little more special.
