SMILE Biscotti Supporting My Independent Living Enterprise

Keeping you up updated on all the SMILE news! The story behind the SMILE's

My name is Matt Resnik. Smiles,

Matt

I'm a young adult with autism. After my high school graduation, I created SMILE Biscotti so I could start supporting myself and saving for my own place to live. I've always loved baking! While some people might find it difficult to do the same thing every day, my love of routine ensures that you can always enjoy my consistent, high quality biscotti. Stop by our select locations to indulge in my Signature SMILE's or order online any time. Thank you for your support.

A new season is upon us and arriving with a new fall flavor, new skill set and long-awaited cooler temperatures. Enjoy this piece about our collaboration with Waymo, Duck and Decanter and ingredients we're adding to our hearts and smiles!

Lately, Matt has hailed Waymo One, an autonomous ride-hailing service operating in Phoenix, to deliver biscotti to SMILE’s local retail clients. With Waymo, Matt can get around Phoenix independently without relying on any other person to drive him. “Matt is packaging biscotti, he is delivering b...

One of the happiest people we know when it comes to cleaning, working and checking things off his list. Go Matt!

I’ve never seen anyone express as much joy cleaning their home as Matt Resnik. While I doubt he actually enjoys the loud vacuuming or quiet dusting, he certainly values checking things off his list. From doing laundry and emptying the dishwasher or trash to cleaning all the counters and doorhandle...

Important for us all to let our hair down! Matt always keeps it real.

Matt loves my hair. Always has. He likes playing with the curls, sticking his nose in them for a whiff and making sure they’re lying on his pillow when we snuggle. While Matt never cared for the wig I wore while I was transitioning from dark to gray, he had no problem announcing Mom’s “wig hai...
