Most people know Kilwin’s for their ice cream, but the stores boast a variety of candies and other sweets, too.

The Chocolate Shoppe

A long-time Greenville staple, The Chocolate Shoppe offers more than just chocolate-covered sweets. (Although, delicacies such as Cheesecake Centers, Chocolate Covered Oreos, and Chocolate Covered Marshmallows are all drool-worthy). They’re known for their chocolate chip cookies, so if you do pop in to grab some sweets, be sure to try a cookie while you’re there.

The newest candy shop on the upstate scene, you’ll find Candy and Chronicles in Fountain Inn, SC, beside STEAM Coffee. The shop is both a candy store and a book shop, which we think is a pretty great combination. You’ll find a wide array of themed candy, traditional and old-time candy, plus books, toys, and events.
