Paczki Pastries
These delicious Paczki Pastries (pronounced poonch–key) are light and fluffy homemade pastries with sweet fillings.
They are covered with chocolate fudge, homemade cream cheese, a glaze or powdered sugar.
Perfect delicacy for Fat Tuesday on March 4, 2025!
Paczki Pastries is a Polish tradition and a pre-Lenten practice of making pastries to use up all the house's lard, sugar, eggs, and fruit.
Typically celebrated in Poland on Fat Thursday (the Thursday before Lent), eating them on Fat Tuesday (the day before Ash Wednesday) has become very popular in America.

About Us
Morkes Chocolates provides high quality and diverse tastes at affordable prices. With a history of candy making going all the way back to 1920, we at Morkes Chocolates continue to make our chocolate confections from scratch, with all natural chocolate, pure butter, fresh roasted nuts, and a lot of fun.

However, we are not an ‘old’ chocolate company in any sense. We celebrate innovation and are constantly testing new recipes to add to our chocolate line, while always striving to maintain our true mission of a pure, natural and great tasting chocolate confection.
Ultimately, Morkes Chocolates’ mission is:
