Few things in life are better than the perfect sweet treat. Here at Kilwins, that belief has kept our doors open since 1947. With a range of handcrafted chocolates to high-quality ice cream to made-in-store fudge, we know you’ll find something that caters to your sweet tooth when you visit our store.
Our founders, Don and Katy Kilwin, believed in only using the finest ingredients to make our handcrafted chocolates since day one, and that belief hasn’t wavered over the decades. Every one of our chocolate products, from our truffles to our nut clusters and bark to our toffee and so much more are made with the utmost care by our chocolatiers. No matter what you’re in the mood for, we guarantee that you’ll love your options at our Annapolis, Maryland, location.
On a hot summer day, we’d argue that there’s no better option than our super-premium ice cream, available in a wide range of flavors. Whether you’re craving a rich caramel flavor, a waffle cone full of chocolate, or a lighter, fruitier flavor, Kilwins has you covered. You’ll find plenty of choices at our Annapolis location, and we welcome you to sample any flavor to find your favorite.
We’ve been making and selling fudge for almost as long as we’ve been making and selling chocolates. Don and Katy Kilwin bought a marble table in 1948 and soon after, started handcrafting fudge on it. They started simple with just a few flavors at the outset, but over the years, Kilwins has added new flavors to cater to as many people as we can.
Growing our flavor roster of products isn’t the only thing we’ve been working on: We’ve also been working on growing our number of locations so more people across the country can taste what we (and our customers) think are some of the best sweet treats you can find anywhere. As we continue to spread Kilwins across America, we work just as hard to make sure that each and every store is held to the same standards of quality as our first.
When you walk into our Annapolis, Main Street, location, we want you to feel like it’s just as special as walking into Don and Katy’s first store, filled with the smell of delicious chocolate and a warm atmosphere you can melt in.
Part of the secret to our success is the direct line of knowledge passed down from one generation of candy cooks to the next. This knowledge isn’t the only thing we’ve passed down—some of our cooking equipment is the same that we first used in the 1940s. You really can taste the difference.
We’ve added some modern technology to help make new flavors and improve parts of our process, but we just wouldn’t be Kilwins without our classic techniques and flavors.
In 1985, Kilwins officially added ice cream to our store offerings. We take making ice cream seriously. Kilwins sources high-quality ingredients to make the premium base for our kosher-certified ice cream and combines it with inclusions such as chocolate fudge or chopped nuts to create the variety of unique flavors available.
Just like with our chocolates and fudge, we aren’t satisfied with just making a few flavors of each. Over the decades, we’ve slowly added new flavors to our ice cream parlor, branching out from traditional classics to give you more options to try each time you visit our Kilwins location in Annapolis, MD. We even have a variety of limited-edition flavors at different times of the year.
Even if we don’t have the specific flavor you’re looking for available right now, we guarantee that you’ll find something you’ll love. Ask any team member for a free sample to find a new favorite.
On top of the dozens of delicious flavors we keep in stock year-round, we also carry a variety of toppings you can use to customize your scoop to fit your taste. Not only do we make our waffle cones fresh on location, but we also offer toppings ranging from cookie crumbles to chopped nuts to our handcrafted hot fudge and more. We want to make sure that your purchase is exactly what you need to brighten your day.
Creating the perfect ice cream is just the first step in our process — getting it to each of our store locations is just as important. We expertly freeze our ice cream to ensure that it maintains its quality throughout the shipping process, and we transport it across the country in our very own temperature-controlled trucks.
No matter where you are, we want our customers to know that when they step inside a Kilwins store, they will be treated to some of the best ice cream, chocolates, and fudge that they can find anywhere in America.
Ever since Kilwins started out as a dream for Don and Katy, our goal has been to create a place where people can experience a nostalgic setting. You can live their dream now, too. Our commitment to providing all of our customers with both exceptionally friendly customer service and high-quality products across the board has helped us grow from a single shop into more than a hundred stores across the United States.
Our values encompass the golden rule (treating others the way you want to be treated), working hard, and finding joy in all that we do. From our candy cooks to our newest team members, everyone is committed to continuing these traditions. No matter how much our business has grown or how our processes have evolved over the years, we remain true to these values to provide you with the best experience you’ll find in any candy and ice cream shop nationwide.
Keeping these values close to our hearts over the decades is what we think makes us so special — you deserve a place that treats you well from the moment you enter the store.
While we’ve made some adjustments to how we make chocolate and ice cream at an ever-increasing scale, the core process itself continues to reflect how we started.
At the same time, we are constantly advancing and improving how and what we make. We regularly test and introduce new equipment to keep up with the times, but every addition is carefully chosen to complement the beautiful process we’ve spent decades perfecting.
So much of our charm comes from what we’ve kept consistent and classic. We’re honored to share our warm atmosphere and high-quality sweets with you! Visit our Annapolis ice cream store to see what all the hype is about and try some of our treats for yourself—or bring some home to share!
