Are you looking for a vintage candy store feeling? Kilwins at East Grand Rapids has the sweet treats you’re craving. Our hand-crafted treats, from our nostalgic copper kettle-cooked caramels to our Heritage chocolates, are made with the same care as they were the day we first opened.
Kilwins is consistent wherever you go. Our East Grand Rapids location is the perfect place to find boxed chocolates for special occasions or a frozen treat to enjoy after spending the day with your family. Fans of caramel love our Granny Smith caramel apples or a large bag of caramel corn.
Our store prides itself on making things the old-fashioned way—we still hand-paddle our famous Mackinac Island Fudge and make our ice cream with locally sourced cream and milk. No matter what kind of sweets you’re craving, we have something for everyone.
For locals and visitors alike, Kilwins is the go-to East Grand Rapids chocolate store. We’re located in the Gaslight Village area, surrounded by quality restaurants and close to John Collins Park.
We love doing things the right way, and for candy-making, the right way is the old-fashioned way. That’s because we pride ourselves on delivering an experience that makes our customers feel right at home. Anyone can enjoy a relaxing afternoon browsing our store and tasting the many sweet treats we have available.
Our in-store confectioners work hard to bring our customers the very best products. With our high-temperature cooking area, modern candy-making equipment, and cold room, we have a tried and true process that creates the perfect candy every time.
Our Mackinac Island Fudge is prepared in-store from high-quality ingredients cooked in a copper kettle. Then, we paddle it by hand and shape it into the delicious fudge you know and love. We invite you to come in and try a piece on its own or mix it into a scoop of our famous ice cream.
We pride ourselves on Heritage that can be tasted and quality that can’t be matched. Our East Grand Rapids ice cream store serves top-tier ice cream in a wide variety of flavors that are sure to please. Between our smooth, rich ice cream and our premium, made-in-house toppings, it’s no wonder our customers lovingly refer to us as “My Kilwins.”

Since 1985, each of our Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream flavors has been made with excellence. Guests can order classic flavors like vanilla or chocolate, but we also have innovative new flavors and seasonal flavors that are only available at certain times.
All of our flavors start with our ice cream base, which has been made using the same recipe since 1985. This base is made only with cream sourced from local, family-owned farms.
Once the ice cream has been properly mixed, we pour it into our custom-made tubs designed to keep the dessert fresh and flavorful. Then, we transport it to our East Grand Rapids chocolate store using our own temperature-controlled trucks and delivery drivers.
For special occasions, we offer our Gourmet Cake & Ice Cream—the perfect combination for when you can’t decide on ice cream or cake for dessert. It’s more than just your average ice cream cake. It’s a masterful blend of ingredients and toppings that make it a truly unique experience.
