Your Local Naples-Mercato Kilwins Store

We’re the best chocolate, fudge, and ice cream store in Naples-Mercato.

Kilwins became a bright spot in Naples in 2020. Ever since, the Naples-Mercato ice cream store has served area customers interested in cooling down with ice cream on a warm day, sharing some chocolate with a friend, treating themselves to sugary happiness, or buying some of the Mackinac Island Fudge that quickly became an area favorite. 

It’s hard to think of Kilwins without thinking about our Heritage Chocolates. These chocolates have a rich taste and a rich history; the recipe dates back to 1947. You’ll find Heritage Chocolate not only in bar and bark form; we also drizzle it on some of our caramel apples. When you order a caramel apple, expect a flawless Granny Smith apple hand-dipped in caramel made in an old-fashioned copper kettle. At Kilwins, we respect traditional cooking methods and showcase them in our Naples-Mercato chocolate store.

We pride ourselves on selling high-quality products in a family-friendly atmosphere. Kilwins is a place where people come together to share a bite to eat and share memories from the good times in their lives. From the Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream to the boxed chocolates, there’s a lot to try at this Naples-Mercato ice cream store. 

Perhaps our favorite aspect of our Naples-Mercato location is the community we serve. Residents are welcoming, and we love getting to know everyone who walks in our door. It’s a beautiful area where palm trees sway in the breeze outside the multitude of shops and eateries. Pull up a seat outside at one of our tables, do some people (and pet) watching, and enjoy the sunshine—all while enjoying your favorite sweet treat!

There are many stores to explore in the Mercato shopping and dining complex. Grab a bag of Kilwins caramel corn or a caramel apple and do some window shopping. Or, if you have a day of errands planned, enjoy some toffee while making your way to your destination and conquer your to-do list.

The Mercato events calendar is always full, and our ice cream, fudge, and chocolates are the perfect complements to whatever is on your schedule. Make sure to pick up extra snacks to share before a movie or live show and bring home with you after.

For example, the Paragon Pavilion + Axis15 movie theater is close to our location. As you’re heading to the movies, stop by Kilwins first to have an ice cream cone or a slice of fudge before your film starts. And, of course, nothing says “movie time” like a bag of caramel corn for a home movie night.

We’re More Than Chocolate: Your Favorite Ice Cream Store in Naples-Mercato

Kilwins sets the standard for high-quality desserts, and that includes ice cream. The Naples-Mercato ice cream store is relatively new, but our Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream isn’t. It dates back to 1985, which means countless customers have given it their stamp of approval. We make our ice cream with premium ingredients and create incredible flavors with inclusions like fudge pieces, ribbons of caramel, and crunchy nuts. Make sure to add on our signature toppings—hot fudge or caramel—handcrafted in copper kettles. 

Five-star ice cream isn’t only about the initial recipe, it’s also about keeping the ice cream perfect throughout the process. As lovely as Naples is, it can certainly get hot, particularly during the summer. We don’t take any chances when it comes to the quality of our products.

Kilwins uses temperature-controlled ice cream trucks to protect the ice cream’s integrity, especially since we put so much work in using the finest ingredients in our recipes.

While we’re at it, we also make our own waffle bowls and waffle cones right in our Naples-Mercato ice cream store. Our outstanding reputation is important to us, whether it’s about the products we serve, how much patrons enjoyed what they ordered, or how excited customers are to return.

Going to a party? Hosting one at your house? Want to share a sweet treat with some of your favorite people after a long week at work? Our Kilwins Gourmet Cake and Ice Cream (our take on an ice cream cake, made with real cake) is the answer to all of these and more.
