The next time you go to the grocery store, pick up something that’ll truly make you happy: McArthur’s Bakery’s Smiley Face Cookie Company has launched its popular cookies at area Schnucks stores.
McArthur’s “cookies with a smile,” a longtime favorite at the bakery, are now being made by trainees of the Lafayette Industries StepUp Program, which trains and provides jobs for local adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Each “perfectly imperfect” oversized butter cookie is individually decorated with a smile by StepUp team members at McArthur’s. Cookies are sold by the half-dozen.
“We are excited that Schnucks is able to help local companies like McArthur’s bring their delicious products to our customers and thrilled to support their mission of helping adults with intellectual disabilities maximize their abilities,” said Janell Schleeper, Schnucks Bakery category manager.
Smiley Face Cookie Company cookies are available at 73 area Schnucks stores.
