Kilwins

Kilwins is a chocolate, fudge, and ice cream chain that has been making confections since 1947. Its best-known treats include Mackinac Island fudge, caramel apples, caramel corn and brittle, and chocolate assortments, along with ice cream, sorbetto, and ice cream cakes. Fudge is hand-paddled on marble tables and waffle cones are made in view of customers.

Individual stores are franchise-owned, so offerings can differ from one location to the next. Gift cards and gift boxes are sold, and many treats can be ordered online and shipped. The company's support center and Chocolate Kitchen are based in Petoskey, Michigan.
