Kilwins - St. Charles

132 South 1st Street, St. Charles, IL 60174

Specialty Stores

Kilwins in downtown St. Charles is one of the sweetest shops around! Find exquisite chocolates, fudges, ice cream and more!

Float down 1st Street between Illinois and Main in St. Charles to Kilwins Chocolates, Fudge, and Ice Cream.

Since 1947, when Don and Katy Kilwin opened their sweet shop, the experience of watching candy being cooked in a copper kettle and prepared before a captive audience has never lost its lure.

At Kilwins at 132 S. First Street, you can enjoy the sweet smells, delicious flavors, and watch the craftsmenship of fudge, caramel corn, peanut brittle, and caramel apple production. Fun, friends, & family! Sweet in every sense since 1947
