There’s candy, and then there’s handcrafted chocolate. If you’d like to taste the difference, we invite you to come to your Kilwins Hendersonville chocolate store. We offer the widest variety of handcrafted chocolates, including creams, truffles, nut clusters, and caramels. Our dedication to quality is clear in every bite.
In addition to the finest chocolates available, our oversized “perfect” caramel apples really are just that—perfect. Oversized Granny Smith apples are dipped in our homemade caramel sauce before being rolled in toppings like nuts and candy bits or coated in dark or milk chocolate. Our menu goes on; we also make caramel corn and chocolate-dipped pretzels and cookies. Not to mention, we’re the best Hendersonville ice cream store you’ll find.
Our commitment to quality (along with our warm, inviting atmosphere) means you’ll get the best combination of flavor, friendliness, and happiness available. Everything we do is done to meet our core values and exceed your expectations.
Kilwins has been making life sweeter since 1947. Our founders believed that treating others as you want to be treated, always doing your best, and having fun were core values that should be in everything they do. Today, you’ll still find those core values leading all that we do at Kilwins Hendersonville, and it’s why we’ve become a local favorite.
Our Hendersonville chocolate store is conveniently located downtown and provides a memorable way to finish a trip to the Hands On! Children’s Museum or the Mineral and Lapidary Museum of Art.

TUTTLEs™ are a twist on classic turtles, featuring our homemade caramel atop clusters of premium nuts and topped with milk, dark, or true, vanilla-infused white chocolate. After dinner, before a hike, or because the mood strikes, a visit to the Kilwins Hendersonville chocolate store makes every day sweeter.

What makes Kilwins Hendersonville ice cream store the best ice cream shop in town? It has to do with our commitment to the highest quality ingredients and our specialized creation and delivery process. We’ve been making our Original Recipe Ice Cream since 1985.
We control every aspect of our ice cream production. It starts with where we get our ingredients, carefully selecting which local family farms to get milk and ice cream from. Then, our ice cream is only kept in customized tubs that preserve its trademark consistency.
Our ice cream was once only available at our flagship store, but through the use of some modern innovations and the operation of our very own delivery vans, we can bring Original Recipe Ice Cream everywhere (but it only goes to Kilwins). Our vans are temperature-controlled to ensure you get our “Super-Premium” ice cream at its freshest, no matter when you find yourself stepping up to the Kilwins ice cream counter.
The next time you pay us a visit, consider having a few scoops in one of our in-store-made waffle cones or bowls. It’s a crispy, slightly sweet accompaniment to our iconic ice cream. Make sure to try our traditional favorite Hendersonville ice cream store favorites like malts, milkshakes, and ice cream sundaes. We have several sundaes to choose from: Make them your own by adding your own flavors, toppings, and sauces!
