Your Local Guntersville, AL Kilwins Store
We’re the best chocolate, fudge, and ice cream store in Guntersville.
Kilwins is synonymous with excellence and tradition. As your Guntersville chocolate store, we love to bring our guests an experience they will never forget. Kilwins has done it the same way for over 75 years, with some updates here and there, but what you experience in our stores is the same feeling generations before have felt: joy, service with a smile, and a love of handcrafted, artisan treats.
Choose from dozens of sweets—from ice cream to handcrafted chocolates—to enjoy for yourself or as a thoughtful gift to a loved one. No matter what you’re here for, we have a team that supports you in making your next sweet decision. When you enter Kilwins, you’re greeted with a smile and a genuine connection.
Our desserts are crafted with top-tier, quality ingredients— many are the same recipes we’ve used for years. We believe in what works, and that oftentimes doing things the old-fashioned way makes everything taste better. Stop by and try a few samples to see how sweet treats should be made.

Since 1947, Kilwins has been the go-to sweets store for a true family-owned experience. Our founders, Don and Katy Kilwins, believed that their neighbors deserved the best chocolates around and we maintain that to this day.
Though we’ve expanded our stores beyond our original Petoskey, Michigan location, every location feels like a trip down memory lane, a sweet nostalgic journey. Our fudge is handmade in-store, and our chocolates are made with the same care, attention, and recipes we’ve perfected.
We started out as just one store and have loved getting to share our handcrafted, classic recipes around the country for everyone to enjoy. We still make many things the same way they were made decades ago, and that’s just one reason why we stand out.
While we now use some modern inventions, we also use hands-on techniques to get just the right flavor. Want to see it first-hand? Come on in and see our team create your treats in front of your eyes!

Guntersville is the perfect place to land for a relaxing lakeside vacation. Make Kilwins part of your vacation memories when you share a bag of caramel corn on a picnic table along the Sunset Drive Walking Trail or bring a bag of peanut brittle to an outdoor concert at the Errol Allan Park. Perhaps out of all the things we recommend to both locals and visitors is to enjoy a scoop of your favorite ice cream as you look out at Big Spring Creek.
Whether you want a few treats to bring along to the lake, a gentle hike, or a place to relax after soaking up the sun, Kilwins will be here to help you with a smile.
