Welcome to the Kilwin’s of Wilmington.  We offer friendly service, the world's best Mackinac Island fudge, our Original Recipe ice cream, and loads of fresh candies and chocolate treats made right in the store.  Kilwin’s of Wilmington is a “must-visit” stop on your next visit to Historic Downtown. From the moment you walk in the door your senses will be enticed with the warm sweet aroma of chocolate, fudge, and fresh homemade waffle cones.  We hand craft a wide variety of candies and other confections right in our candy kitchen.  Watch as our homemade products are produced in the store right before your eyes.  See creamy Mackinac Island fudge being paddled the traditional way on marble tables.  Listen to the scrape of a wooden paddle on a copper kettle as sweet corns and brittles are created on site.  Watch as we hand dip fresh apples in our original caramel recipe, developed by Don Kilwin himself, for that perfect and best tasting caramel apple.  And that is just the beginning.  We also hand dip a variety of treats in our decadently smooth and delicious milk, dark, or white chocolate.  Try a fresh cluster with a choice of ingredients, a hand dipped strawberry, pretzel, Oreo, marshmallow puff or krispie treat.
