At our Kilwins Elmhurst chocolate store, we’re proud to bring a little happiness to your day. It starts with our Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream. Dozens of flavors are available, ranging from classics like chocolate and vanilla to creative flavors like Chocolate Caramel Cookies & Cream. Our ice cream provides the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day or just as a sweet, creamy treat throughout the rest of the year.
Our Mackinac Island Fudge is one of the major reasons we’re known as a staple Elmhurst chocolate store in addition to being an ice cream destination. We have Don and Katy Kilwin to thank for developing the original recipes in the mid-1900s. There’s a reason for the popularity of our fudge over the years. We still honor the original recipe as it was intended. A no-sugar-added version may also be available. Our fudge makes for a great way to treat yourself or surprise some of your favorite people.
That’s not all you’ll find at Kilwins. Caramel apples are a favorite year-round treat, but we think they’re an especially delicious way to ring in the fall season. Chocolate truffles, chocolate bars, and chocolate-dipped pretzels are only a few of the other goodies you’ll find at our store. Kilwins started as a dream back in 1947, and our commitment to providing an overall wonderful experience makes it easy to understand why we continue to flourish in the 21st century.
Enjoying treats from Kilwins is about slowing down to celebrate the little moments in life. This charming community has many places and activities where treats would be the perfect accompaniment. Sit in one of the many local parks on a beautiful day with an ice cream in hand, rent a book from the library and relish some chocolates while you read, or dig into a box of caramels. Every treat helps make an average day a little more special.

The mid-80s marked the debut of our Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream. Kilwins provides a broad range of options you’ll love, whether you’re into fruit flavors, vanilla, chocolate, mint, or anything in between. You can find our best flavors and fresh, handcrafted waffle cones and waffle bowls at our Elmhurst ice cream store.
Our dozens of available flavors and accompanying toppings can make it challenging to decide which ice cream variety to try next. We take incredible pride in our entire ice cream process, from its start to when it ends up in the hands of our customers.
All of our ice cream is kosher-certified. Our love of our Elmhurst community begins with sourcing high-quality ingredients. We also have our own temperature-controlled trucks that help keep our products at the right temperature and consistency while in transit.
We have classic flavors such as chocolate, chocolate chip cookie dough, cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, rum raisin, and old-fashioned vanilla. However, our customers can also dig into a multitude of other options inspired by flavors from all over the world and all colors of the rainbow.
You’ll want to try all of our flavors once you see what our Elmhurst ice cream store has to offer. No matter what you like, there’s something for everyone, whether you want it in a cup or a fresh, made-in-store waffle cone (or waffle bowl).
Our Kilwins Elmhurst ice cream store is the best, simply due to our dedication to perfection, high-quality products, attention to detail in every step of our creation process, and the wide variety of products and flavors we offer.
While all of that plays a part, it comes down to our love of and commitment to our Elmhurst community and the appreciation we’ve received in return. Our team members deliver exceptional customer service every day. Every person who walks through our doors is greeted with a smile and some happiness to help brighten their day.
