A long standing tradition of Mardi Gras in many communities, is to spend Fat Tuesday indulging in sweets, meats, and baked goods to a high degree, preparing oneself for the fasts and sacrifices of lent. There is no more perfect indulgence than the Paczki.

Yummm!

Paczki are round sugar coated, fruit filled Polish pastry. Originally Paczki were prepared to use up the lard and eggs, which were prohibited during lent. No one will ever agree on how to pronounce them, but everyone will agree that you cannot eat just one or even two!
