Make your day sweeter with a visit to our Kilwins Hoover chocolate store. Behind our candy counters, you can find various confections made fresh throughout the week. From our smooth Heritage Chocolate truffles to our crunchy nut brittles, we have something for everyone.

While you decide what treat to try, take a peek behind the counter to watch our confectioners shape our hand-paddled Mackinac Island Fudge and ask our team members for a few samples. You might even catch a glimpse of our confectioners hand-dipping our perfect caramel apples or making our other chocolate-coated sweets.

Whether you’re celebrating a loved one, starting a new family tradition, or simply looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, Kilwins makes each moment special. Our Americana-style atmosphere and friendly team members make our Hoover chocolate store feel like an extension of your own home—just like each of our guests is an extension of our own family.

Kilwins first began when our founders, Don and Katy Kilwin, opened their first store in Petoskey, Michigan. What started as a small storefront dedicated to serving chocolate to the community eventually blossomed. Today, we are proud to call over 25 states home.

At our Hoover ice cream store, our goal is simple: to serve the highest-quality treats to our guests. Our dedication to perfection has led us to craft the most delicious confections, and many of our treats are still made using original recipes.

Our Heritage Chocolate hasn’t changed since 1947, and our caramels have been made the same way for the past 70+ years. Even our Original Recipe Ice Cream still uses the recipe we created in 1985. We don’t need to change our recipes to make them better—we focus on maintaining quality and inventing new flavors. 

For instance, most of the confections you’ll see in our Hoover chocolate store are still made by hand in our candy kitchens. Even in the 21st century, Kilwins still makes the best candy. We opt for quality over quantity every time. We like to think that love truly is the secret ingredient.

When we first decided to start serving ice cream in 1985, we had no idea it would be such a popular treat. After its resounding success, we knew it deserved a permanent place in every Kilwins.

As the name suggests, our Original Recipe Ice Cream is based on the recipe we used back in 1985. All of our flavors are crafted with the finest ingredients.

We’re dedicated to perfection, which is why our kosher-certified ice cream is stored in custom containers that preserve the rich flavor and smooth texture. When it’s time to ship it to our Hoover ice cream store, we transport it using our company-owned, temperature-controlled trucks.
