LJ Reyes and her husband, Philip Evangelista, have officially entered the food business with the grand opening of their very own bakery, The Village Cookie, located in Northport, New York.
The couple shared a video featuring the heartwarming ribbon-cutting ceremony on their store's official Instagram page.
“We are here to stay (yes???) and serve you heartwarming cookies with the biggest smiles! Thank you again so much for all the love and support!” the caption read.
For the special milestone, LJ and Philip were accompanied by LJ's two children: Ethan Akio, her son with Paulo Avelino; and Summer Ayana, her daughter with Paolo Contis.
Happiness filled the air throughout the launch, which was well-attended by the couple's close circle of friends and a crowd of adorable kids eager to try out the freshly baked treats.
