Welcome to Kilwins, where we’ve been making the finest chocolate for over 70 years, and we’re now in Knoxville, Tennessee. Kilwins is known for our handcrafted chocolate goodies and premium ice cream flavors. Come visit our Knoxville chocolate store to try our signature Mackinac Island Fudge, TUTTLE™ Nut Caramels, Original Recipe Ice Cream, caramels, and old-fashioned milkshakes. With so many options, you’ll always have something new to try.
The Mid-Century Americana decor in our Knoxville ice cream store takes you back to the classic era of candy shops. Once inside, you’ll be greeted by the sweet smell of fresh chocolate and a friendly welcome from our staff.
Our fudge-making process is a sight to behold. Watch through our picturesque window as our professional confectioners hand-paddle our Mackinac Island Fudge on a marble countertop, just like we did it 80 years ago. If you’re lucky, you’ll even get to sample a piece on the spot. Watching our fudge take shape is one thing, but tasting it fresh off the counter is the real deal.
Whether you are looking for an outdoor adventure or a relaxing weekend with loved ones, Knoxville is the place to be. This city has everything you need for a fun-filled getaway. Step outside our doors and take a quick walk to Charles Krutch Park or catch a performance at the Tennessee Theatre.
At our Knoxville chocolate store, we have one mission: To follow in the footsteps of our founders, Don and Katy Kilwin. Their goal was to make the best products possible out of the highest quality ingredients.
For 80 years, we have dedicated ourselves to carrying out the Kilwins family legacy. Our Heritage chocolate, chewy caramels, nut brittles, and Mackinac Island Fudge are made using the same recipes our founders developed all those years ago. The Kilwins we know and love today is a reminder of all their hard work and passion.
Whether days are warm or cool, our Knoxville ice cream store has the perfect treat. Our coffees and hot chocolates are smooth and warm, ideal for staying toasty during the winter. Once summer rolls around, our creamy milkshakes and Kosher-certified ice cream will keep you cool and refreshed.
Kilwins has three principles that guide our everyday decisions: treat others how you want to be treated, do your best, and have fun. These guiding principles have helped us create our signature products and ensure every person who walks through our doors feels welcome.
Our dedicated chocolatiers provide the best confectionery experience possible. We achieve this by handcrafting our sweets with care and precision. The difference in quality is unparalleled when candies are made by hand.
Get in touch with us to learn how we can make your upcoming event extra-special, provide your clients with a memorable and one-of-a-kind gift, or recognize your customers or employees with a treat they're sure

Kilwins is more than a chocolate store — we also have a wide selection of rich ice cream flavors. Not only do we serve the classics, but we also introduce seasonal ice cream flavors throughout the year. Our ice cream is made with the freshest cream and kept at a precise temperature. With our variety of premium toppings and fresh waffle cones, you can build a truly custom creation.
Our Knoxville ice cream store is a place where friends and family can get together and bond over a delicious cone of our Original Recipe Ice Cream. We offer a variety of flavors, from our classic selection to our limited-edition rotation.
Each flavor is Kosher-certified and made from our signature ice cream base. This base is delicately made with fresh cream sourced from local, family-owned farms. Even many of our flavor mix-ins are made in our own kitchens.
However, it’s not just the ingredients that set our ice cream apart. We have a distinct process of maintaining and protecting our ice cream. Our custom-made ice cream tubs keep our frozen treats perfectly smooth and flavorful when they arrive at our Knoxville ice cream store.
Our ice cream is also shipped and handled by our own temperature-controlled trucks and watchful drivers. By controlling and monitoring the temperature in these trucks, our ice cream is always the perfect consistency.
What sets Kilwins apart from other confectioneries is our commitment to perfection and our friendly customer service. Our milk and cream come from trusted family farms, and our ice cream is transported with a level of care you won’t find anywhere else.
Our ice cream is also Kosher-certified and has the widest variety of customization. We have homemade syrups, Heritage chocolate, sprinkles, and more. Plus, we can easily turn any of our ice cream flavors into a delightful milkshake or sundae.
When it comes to our roots, we’re a chocolate store through and through. We offer classic milk, dark, and white chocolate bars and bark, as well as truffles, caramels, and our signature TUTTLE™ Nut Caramels. These chocolates are all handmade with our 1947 Heritage recipes.
