Q. What is Paczki Day??
A. Paczki Day / Fat Tuesday, also known as Mardi Gras, is a day of celebration before the Christian fasting season of Lent. The name comes from the custom of eating rich foods before the fasting period and it's the last day to indulge in foods before the traditional 40-day period of fasting before Easter.
In Polish-American culture, Pączki Day (punch-key) is a once-a-year event and is only celebrated on Fat Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday, which always falls in the seventh week before the Christian holiday Easter. It is speculated that in the U.S., the Polish communities have adopted Fat Tuesday as Paczki Day to fit in with the general festivities when they immigrated to the U.S.
Pączki are very rich donuts, deep fried and then filled with fruit or cream filling and covered with powdered sugar.
