Your Local Vero Beach Kilwins Store

Kilwins ice cream and fudge shop entrance

We’re the best chocolate, fudge, and ice cream store in Vero Beach.

Like Vero Beach is “The Gateway to the Tropics,” consider Kilwins a gateway to the past—where chocolates are made by hand, and five-star customer service is the norm. At Kilwins, we’ve been handcrafting our sweet confectioneries for over 70 years. From the first mouthful, you can taste the love that went into making every chocolate and confection. 

Whether you sample our famous Mackinac Island Fudge, selection of chocolate bars, or hand-dipped nut clusters, you’ll understand why Kilwins is part of the Florida resort world. We still use only the finest ingredients to create our selection of chocolate and confections.

Don and Katy Kilwins opened their first store with one goal in mind—to produce the highest quality chocolate possible. Our values remain steadfast, and we blend heritage equipment with modern methods to transform premium ingredients into one-of-a-kind delights. That goal still holds true in our Vero Beach chocolate store today.

Vero Beach combines a low-key atmosphere with city-like access to luxury. The warm ocean breeze and selection of boutique stores invite us to treat ourselves. It’s not long before you’re looking for a chocolate store in Vero Beach. 

Enter Kilwins—a chocolate and confections store with a small-town feel that makes a big difference. Since Don and Katy Kilwin opened their first store in 1947, Kilwins has delighted people across the country. 

Our chocolate store in Vero Beach is no different. It’s a part of local culture, helping people find the perfect gift for any celebration. You don’t need a special occasion, however. They are available anytime you want to treat yourself or make a moment just a bit sweeter.

If you can’t wait to taste our Mackinac Island Fudge and Heritage Chocolate collection, pack a cooler and stop at Kilwins.

Kilwins adds some sweetness to your beach picnic. Share a boxed assortment of truffles or a tin of caramel corn while watching the crashing waves. Kilwins is the perfect addition to this vibrant town—a dash of summer nostalgia that will keep you coming back for more.

We’re More Than Chocolate: Your Favorite Ice Cream Store in Vero Beach

Kilwins doesn’t only sell chocolates; we are also the best Vero Beach ice cream store. Building on our legacy, we combine old-fashioned dedication to quality with modern methods to create one-of-a-kind, kosher-certified ice cream. It starts with the finest ingredients to form a premium base for our world-famous flavors. We combine this base with the highest quality ingredients to complete each ice cream flavor. 

Florida summers remind us of childhood. You smell the sea air and feel the salt on your face and hair after you’ve played in the ocean. Your cheeks are warm from the sun, and cool creamy ice cream is the best way to finish the day. Spend the day at Humiston Beach Park and stop by Kilwins for our velvety smooth Original Recipe Ice Cream. Vero Beach locals and regulars maintain there’s no better ice cream store in this area of Florida. 

Our traditional flavors, like vanilla and chocolate, will take you right back to childhood. We also have a range of unique ice cream flavors and vibrant sorbets that feel right at home in Vero Beach, the heart of Citrus County. At Kilwins, we believe in innovation, so remember to ask about our limited-edition menu and take your seaside ice cream to the next level. 

The History of our Vero Beach Ice Cream Store

We started to make ice cream in 1985, and we perfected our recipe after years of dedication. It became as popular as our original offerings in no time. Today, it’s another Kilwins tradition that people have been enjoying for decades and will enjoy for generations to come. Become a part of our story with a trip to our Vero Beach store! 

While we stay true to the methods that made us a family favorite, we like to keep raising the bar with new, modern flavors that keep our customers guessing.

No ice cream is complete without a crunchy cone. In true Kilwins style, our freshly handcrafted waffle cones (and waffle bowls) are a cut above the rest. Combine them with any one of our flavors to add some warmth and crunch to your ice cream experience. Grab an ice cream and enjoy it at your leisure as you walk along the beach or take in the Vero Beach arts and culture scene.
