Paczki Day is February 21, 2012 – Fat Tuesday
Paczki, pronounced PUNCH-key, are a Polish jelly-filled doughnut, traditionally served before the Lenten season begins.
Paczki are circular deep-fried dougnuts filled with various fillings such as apricot, lemon, custard, vanialla cream, blueberry, peach, cherry and more.
