Paczki Day

I can hardly believe next Tuesday, February 16th, is Paczki Day! This year it is only two days after Valentine's Day. We are grateful here at TONI to have so many reasons in February to celebrate with sweets.

Paczkis (pronounced pawnch-key) have become a Fat Tuesday tradition in the Chicago area because of the large numbers of Polish immigrants that live here. In Poland, Paczki Day is actually the Thursday before Lent. Paczkis are similar to Bismarks, however, the dough is a little richer, because of additional eggs. Our fillings are especially rich and very unique. We have Paczki filled with White Chocolate Mousse and Fresh Strawberries, Cream Cheese and Blueberry filling, as well as more traditional flavors.

If you stop by, you won't miss our LARGE SIGN that I carefully put up during the blizzard, just for you!
