The most commonly ordered items and dishes from this store
Kilwins Ice Cream uses only fresh antibiotic-free, rbST-free milk and cream from family farms. Our Ice Cream falls into the “Super Premium” category. It has a very creamy consistency due to the fact the recipe contains 14% butterfat. We store it at -20°, which results in very tiny ice crystals. It is a “low overrun” ice cream because we incorporate less air in the product during production, leading to a heavier, denser texture. Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream is a high quality, rich and indulgent treat!
The perfect caramel apple starts with a fresh & crisp granny smith apple, hand-dipped in our made-in-store caramel. Our caramel is still cooked in a traditional copper kettle, a three-hour process that results in a smooth & creamy caramel, for that "Perfect" caramel apple, a customer favorite for 70 years!
