Plan Ahead for Paczki Day in Deerfield

Deerfields Bakery in Deerfield and Buffalo Grove will offer 16 flavors of the traditional Mardi Gras treat.

Buffalo Grove residents in search of a packzi fix don't have far to look. Deerfields Bakery is marking Paczki Day with 16 flavors of the popular pastry.

Paczkis, to some, are a last hurrah of sorts on Fat Tuesday (also called Mardi Gras or Paczki Day), which falls the day before the start of the Lenten season. Ash Wednesday is a day of fasting for Catholics. 

At Deerfields Bakery, paczkis will come filled with custard, an assortment of fruits and even cookies 'n cream, among others.
