Kilwin's makes the BEST caramel apples!!! I have at least three per week lol. The caramel apple with peanuts is my go to but the turtle apple is equally as good. I cheated with a different location and was disappointed to say the least. I am forever a customer of Kilwin's in Cary, NC. After all, an apple a day keeps the doctor away and a little caramel doesn't hurt. Customer care is always great! They are courteous and always ready to greet me. read more

Stopped by this ice cream place to check out their flavors. They got tons!!! I couldn't decide after tasting few flavors.

They also had tons of dessert items! read more

My father and I went out to dinner and decided to stop by Kilwins to get some ice cream. I have seen Kilwins all over Indy and never stopped by, so was excited about trying the ice cream for the first time. Kilwins is also a candy store that specializes in fudge and other chocolate candies as well that looks amazing. I decided upon the toasted coconut ice cream and my father picked fudge brownie for his flavor of ice cream. The toasted coconut was absolutely incredible when I first tasted it. It was like a party in my mouth with the coconut flavor instantly touching my tongue. I enjoyed every bite of it and my father loves his fudge brownie ice cream. The ice cream is definitely high quality and high value, so you will definitely get your money's worth. The staff were very friendly and alllowed us to sample other flavors as well. I would love to try the fudge and chocolate candies one day because I'm sure it is just as good as the ice cream. Kilwins is an excellent ice cream and candy shop and highly recommended if you want to satisfy your sweet tooth. read more

$6.25 per small scoop of Chocolate Ice Cream. I draw the line. That is pure greed. No thanks. I'm done as a customer.

Very good ice cream and especially a really good pistachio milkshake!! Its in a nice area, prices are fine and friendly customer service

Stopped in while I had my niece for a treat! We got the gummy bears (which are the BEST), chocolate covered pretzels, and she requested a Carmel apple (which she devoured). They have so many goodies I could have gotten way more!! Luckily I had my niece with me so I did have to control myself. I will be back for the turtles This place is very clean and the customer service is delightful. yea something's are on the pricey side but it's worth it! read more

I was on a local foodie page and a recent transplant was asking where they could find an ice cream flavor called Blue Moon. I'd never heard of such a thing and of course was intrigued. Someone mentioned Kilwins had it so I had to go try it. I wish the flavor could be described, but can't really put my finger on it. Their website calls it fruit flavored, but for me if blue could be a flavor this would be it. I really liked it! I also got some Superman ice cream, which is tasty too. I'm just a kid at heart! read more

You can't just walk by without going in... I had an amazing scoop of the Kilwin Tracks flavor. I don't have the exact flavor description but I know there was chocolate covered peanuts and maybe a fudge/caramel swirl. Regardless, it was sweet and magical. There are tons of ice cream flavor choices and you can have as many samples as you want before choosing. There are cases and displays of chocolate and candies. The caramel apples looked to die for as well. This was my first time visiting a Kilwins. I need to look for one near my hometown now! read more

Kilwins is right on the middle of a 2.5 mile walking loop around our place, so it felt like the kids could use a little treat midway into it. They had a great collection of chocolate and fudge varieties and as a dark chocolate loving family, it helped that almost each variety had a dark counterpart. My kids loves the dark chocolate pretzel and the Rice Krispie covered bar. We picked some dark chocolate caramel pecans for us and they paired well with our bourbon later in the evening! The chocolates are delicious, they have a sanitizing spray counter at entry, everyone is masked. The customer service is truly nonexistent, none of us were acknowledged and it took a few tries for us to get the lady to answer a question. The second person who came to check us out was actually pretty alright but made no offers to help with recommendations or such. They have good offering so some friendly words or a simple Hello would take them a long way! read more

Magical, wonderful chocolate and ice cream shop! I walked in and this is exactly what you imagine a chocolate shop to look like. Welcoming and open and looks Magical. The chocolate displays are absolutely beautiful and every single chocolate looks dreamy and you just want to take a bite of everything! The ice cream was creamy and packed full of flavor. They had such delicious and unique ice cream flavors that are so amazing. Great ice cream and chocolate shop that's well worth the visit. read more

Amazing desserts and excellent customer service. After passing this location numerous times, I finally was able to stop in. I was greeted upon arrival by a smiling, patient, and helpful employee. I wish I knew her name since she waited patiently as I looked at all of the delicious chocolates, fudge, caramel apples, and ice cream flavors that they sell. She also answered the questions I had about some of the items. After much contemplation, I decided on a few dark chocolate and coconut covered Oreos, double chocolate fudge, and some ice cream. Their chocolate is definitely good but I especially liked the coconut ice cream and lemon sorbet. The flavors were amazing and the consistency was perfect. If you plan to eat it in the car or later, I recommend getting the ice cream in a waffle bowl since their waffle cones are delicious. Their prices are fairly reasonable, parking is easy, and they package the items nicely. Treats from Kilwins would certainly make a great gift for yourself or someone else. I hope to return soon to try some of their other goodies! For those of you playing Pokémon go, there are 2 pokestops nearby so all the more reason to visit Kilwins. read more

My oh my, how amazing my experience was. First things first I was struggling to get inside. Thank goodness a nice young employee was there to save the day! Oh, how kind he was I sometimes struggle to move around and he was very helpful to me. I asked his name he said Hayden. Well, how kind Hayden. My order kept it simple just plain Jane vanilla. I also got a double-dark fudge. My it was so delicious! I wanted seconds. But I decided to head home! I am appreciative of Hayden's great work! He was so helpful and took initiative! He has great potential in his future as a worker. Thank you Kilwins for the great experience. read more

The ice cream and caramel apples here are delicious! Worth a visit if you like either of those. Nice location too with seating outside on the sidewalk. Great place for a family dessert outing. My daughter loves the Superman ice cream and the "blue" ice cream! :) read more

Alright! So, I think I've found my favorite ice cream shop! The ice cream here is so creamy and ever so delicious! I got the mint chocolate chip (which had big chunks of chocolate just the way I like it) and the s'mores ice cream. Half a scoop of each and it was fabulous. We also couldn't resist buying some yummy chocolate cordials and a marshmallow dipped in caramel and salted dark chocolate. Yum! The girls working here are super friendly and they'll let you sample some fudge and ice cream. Also fun to watch them make the fudge while eating your ice cream at the counter. Definitely the best ice cream shop I've been to out in Cary since we've moved here. Yay for great ice cream! read more

Kilwin's has a great selection of desserts! It's the perfect for place for me and my husband to both find something we enjoy. He loves the ice cream with the freshly-made cones, and I really like the chocolate truffles and the variety of caramel apples. There is also a nice selection of gifts, including boxed chocolates, popcorns, and sipping chocolate. This location is very clean and comfortable, with several tables inside and outside. Service is typically very friendly. read more

What a beautiful dreamland for kids and adults alike. This place is filled with chocolates, ice cream, and sugar. As far as the Ice cream goes, I feel the flavors have almost a hearty aid. This isn't smooth and creamy ice cream. Like the ice cream, the cones are very thick. It almost feels more like a meal than a desert. read more

We stopped in Kilwin's after dinner nearby. This was my first time here, I've only been to their location in Charleston SC. We were not so welcomed by a not so friendly and rather unsociable staff. The ice cream they offer however is very delicious. I wish I was able to leave more stars but the staff here prevents me from doing so. I had old fashioned vanilla in a homemade waffle cone. This was to die for! They have outdoor seating on the sidewalk which is where we chose to enjoy our treats. No one in my group had one single complaint of their sweet treats, the only negative to our visit was the very young Kilwin's staff who possibly just needs a little training on proper customer service skills and public interaction. read more

After months of window shopping we decided to go in. Such a cute shop- chocolates everywhere and lots of desserts to choose from. The staff at the counters were very friendly and offered samples if we wanted to try the fudge. Went decided to try the turtle candy apple, they cut the apple for us and we each loved it. The green apple was nice and crispy, the chocolate and nuts were perfect mix of sweet and apple sour. The packaging on the items are too cute. We shared a scoop of sorbet, It was not too sweet. We sat and ate our items, there are a few tables inside the store. There is a counter space, you can sit and watch at they create their chocolate magic. read more

The kids who work here work really hard! Chocolates are really good. I love the chocolate peanut butter ice cream as well. Stop in and say hi to the nice people working here. read more

Ok - I realize I may be throwing the universe out of balance by stating that I hate ice cream and that I'm really not much into sweets in the first place. So what was I doing here? So my son and husband love ice cream. And I'm not above eating good chocolate once in awhile. So I agreed to try Kilwin's when I realized they have things other than ice cream. I tried several truffles. They were good! Sticky, not too terribly sweet, and tasted of chocolate and fillings rather than just sugar. Oh, and my kid had some flavor of ice cream. He liked it. So this not-much-of-a-sweettooth here would come back. read more

It doesn't get much better than walking into Kilwin's and being enveloped in the rich, warm scent of chocolate. Next best thing: the free samples of fudge they give you. Also, their cappuccino chocolate chip ice cream. read more

Hands down one of the best ice cream shops in Cary. They also offer chocolate and homemade fudge among many other delectable confections. Whatever your flavor they can suit your taste. Cary Mud was my consistent go-to for many years, but after sampling their sea salt caramel I've been hooked ever since. The staff are always very friendly and accommodating. With a severe nut allergy in the family, they take the utmost precautions to deliver their scoops from a fresh unopened ice cream container (no matter the flavor) and sanitize their scoopers to avoid any chance of possible cross-contamination. Sometimes you can watch them making their creations in the store which is truly a pleasure to see. Situated near several restaurants Kilwins is conveniently located nearby to satisfy that post-dining dessert craving in all of us and never disappoints. What are you waiting for? read more

The moment you walk in, you'll know that you cant go wrong with this place. The delightful sight of chocolates/waffles/ice cream as you enter, will greatly satisfy your sweet tooth. Tried the turtle sundae and their famous toasted coconut flavor. The scoops are huge and I'm guilty to have had a double scoop - oh! not to forget the waffle cone, caramel topping, cream, nuts, hot chocolate and a cherry on the top. Well, no regrets when it comes to ice cream and especially this place LOL. Also have few tables and chairs outside, just in case if you'd like to enjoy your dessert when the weather is warm. Would definitely go back when I'm in the area again. Almost forgot, the staff was very helpful and made some really good recommendations. Kudos! read more

What a great gift selection!!! If you're pressed for time or imagination Kilwin's offers plenty of decadent options for everyone on your list--sans the weight watcher or health advocate that cares about the amount of sugar they are intaking. The gift baskets, packages and boxes will certainly make an impressive gift this holiday season. Chocolate Santa pops can make a great gift topper along with the ribbon, bow and tag. Many options and a quick trip in and out as long as you don't stop for hand scooped ice cream from the variety they offer. Do not hold your breath waiting for a sample of anything, evidently that isn't a thing on Wednesday nights less than an hour before closing. Actually customer service was nonexistent. Not one person working there even acknowledged my presence. Most seemed young, like they might still have homework to do for their high school class, but that is no excuse. read more

Few things get a 5 star rating from this guy, but Kilwins always does. Kilwins is a specialty chocolate shop with roots in northern Michigan. Don and Kathy Kilwin started the company some time ago and later sold it. New ownership later grew the company with franchises in many states, sprawling from Michigan to Florida and out west to Colorado. Specialty ice cream and chocolates and all so delicious. Try them all! Their specialty is Mackinac Island (Michigan) fudge, which are offered in several flavors. (Tip: Fudge is not chocolate so don't eat large quantity of fudge in a single sitting or you'll be sitting elsewhere with a rumbly in the tummy). Many Kilwin stores create some of their delectable chocolate products in store. You can watch them in action making in-house fudge or other treats. NOTE: Ever want to know what's made in-house and what is shipped in? Just search on products for the Kilwins label. If it lists an address for that local store, then it was likely made there. If the Kilwins label lists a city of "Petoskey, Michigan" then it was likely shipped in - but still delicious. Just know Kilwins chocolate is a little more expensive than your ordinary Hershey bar - but the quality is so much greater and well worth it! read more

We went to Kilwin's for an afternoon treat and I got a single scoop of the cappuccino chocolate chip ice cream in a waffle cone. This ice cream was full of coffee flavor and the bits of chocolate were so good, which I guess is to be expected since they are also a really great chocolate place. But what really made this ice cream stand out was the amazing waffle cone. It was perfectly crunchy and was so sturdy that it didn't get soggy towards the bottom like many waffle cones. The selection of ice cream flavors is also really good. While I wouldn't say anything was super crazy, they had a wide variety of fruity flavors, chocolatey flavors, and then some that had a little bit of everything in it. While we only got ice cream during this visit, we saw what a great selection of chocolate covered goodies they have. I definitely eyed the fudge slices super hard and was really tempted. I would definitely consider Kilwin's a great place to come and get gifts for the chocolate lovers in your life or maybe just treat yourself. You deserve it! read more

Some of the best ice cream in the triangle! Ever since I discovered Kilwin's, I've been here 3 times within 2 weeks. The scoops are humongous! They will even let you do 1 scoop with 2 different flavors. Now, that's something new! As far as customer service goes, everyone is attentive. The worker's energy level can be low at times but hey! I'm here for the ice cream! read more

Kilwins Ice Cream - Chocolate - Fudge - Double scoop! It was awesome! - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

After tonight's Yelp Cinco de Mayo party at Guacamaya tonight, we walked around the corner to Kilwins Chocolates & Ice Cream and straight into Heaven. Upon my first inhale, I had a big grin on my face. To the left: counters of chocolate, candy, and fudge. To my right, the ice cream counter. We went straight for ice cream. I was too antsy to stand in line for this Heaven so I walked around the line looking at all the ice creams while he stood in line. I was even more excited when I discovered that they had Rocky Road. Cake cone. Rocky Road. No major questioning me about how many scoops I wanted. They just read my mind and gave me two massive scoops. Easy checkout. Boom. We're out into the spring/summer night to enjoy the park benches. Until tonight. I'd never heard of Kilwins. They have many other franchise locations around the country, but none really west of Wisconsin or Arkansas. If you're roaming around the state, you can visit them in Asheville, Black Mountain, Blowing Rock, Cary, Hendersonville, Highlands, Huntersville, Wilmington, and Winston-Salem. Kilwins has a really nice tagline: Sweet in every Sense since 1947. :) Definitely hit the sweet spot for this girl. read more

Stopped in to grab some treats after dinner, and may have accidentally created a new addiction. There are so many delicious things here, and I couldn't help but indulge in several. As someone who grew up with local chocolatiers and homemade ice cream parlors, Kilwin's fills a missing part of my sugar loving heart. The s'mores malt shake was literally the best milkshake I've had in my life. We also had a salted caramel apple, a few truffles, a chocolate dipped s'more and marshmallow and nothing disappointed. Can't wait to try their ice cream cake with real cake layered in the ice cream! read more

I knew I was a goner when I walked into Kilwin's. The aroma of waffle cones and chocolate. It was hopeless. After spending several minutes exploring the available ice cream flavors and the chocolate, I went with the fudge. Sigh. It was a disappointment in that the first bite tasted as though the fudge had been too warm when wrapped in the waxed paper. So I took it to work the next day -- always the place to foist off the leftovers of anything -- and had quite a few thumbs up and requests for where where I got it. So, I decided that perhaps it was me with tainted taste buds considering the rave reviews from coworkers. My next trip was for ice cream. That too, was a disappointment. Not that the ice cream was bad, it wasn't. The ice cream (I tried the cashew toffee) was good, really, but no better than the premium ice cream available at any of the other shops or in the local supermarkets. It was not worth the price. If I'm in the area, I'll stop by Kilwin's, if for nothing more than to inhale the aroma of fresh-made waffle cones but probably will save my money for the Godiva ice cream. read more

This place is tough to find because it's located on a street that's actually WITHIN a parking lot. It was very strange to constantly pass this place, yet the street never seemed to pop up, despite the fact that I was driving between the 2 big streets that sandwiches the intended street. I'm not used to seeing street names inside parking lots, so the GPS totally threw me off! Anyway, once you find this place, you'll discover that there are chocolates and chocolate and MORE chocolates - chocolate everything, everywhere!! However, the reason I came here was not for the chocoalte treats, but rather the ice cream because my aunt had a craving for homemade ice cream. Still, I chose flavors that included chocolate! I had a scoop of Cappuccino Chocolate Chips and a scoop of Kilwins Tracks, both have chocolate, and both taste delicious! There's a big section blocked off for making ice cream and cones, but only one lady seemed to be working. The ice cream has a creamy texture with just the right amount of sweetness. There's a map that shows how far they've expanded -- apparently they have several locations spread out across the country! Love their shirt's motto as well: "Life is uncertain...eat your dessert first." Would've bought one if it wasn't for the front design, where several different types of ice cream flavors are displayed in a variety of colors. If the ice cream was on the back, and the motto was on the front, I'd be more inclined to wear the shirt in public, rather than as PJs! Note: Avoid the bathroom - floor is super sticky!!! (maybe somebody dropped ice cream all over the floor that day...) read more

Came here for dessert after dining at a nearby restaurant. Outdoor seating made for a beautiful evening. As you walk in, the aroma hits your senses hard! Variety of candy apples, slabs of fudge, chocolate covered everything. There's also a nice variety of ice cream with seasonal flavors. I ordered the pumpkin pie that had chunks of pie crust in it. I sampled a nice amount of apple pie ice cream with real chunks of baked apple. The fudge brownie ice cream had several pieces of brownie in it. For a small cup of ice cream and two waffle cones with ice cream, I spent $15. Gift baskets also available. Most items were priced per pound but you can get a chocolate covered pretzel for a little over a dollar. Staff was busy but friendly and accommodating. Indoor seating at a counter also available. Clean restrooms. read more

All of the fudge flavors are amazing too! This store has several locations. All of them are equally good wheather in Black Mountain or Cary! read more

I was craving some chocolates..and only Kilwins would do. So I make my way to the Cary, NC store. I order 3 caramel apples, a chocolate snapper and 3 soft caramel chews. Purchase rang up 29.97. I'm happy with my bounty. I don't request a receipt. I've been here a few times before. So why when going over my credit card charges for the day do I see a charge for over 35.00. Why take when it's offered freely almost every week. I will never visit this location again. Can you say Chocolate Factory? read more

As a comparative update, you will get more for your money here ( and I would assume Chocolate Kisses in Cary, NC as well) than the downtown Raleigh chocolatiers. I got twice as much for less here. Bought a chocolate covered waffle cone to go, good stuff!! read more
