Fastnacht

Is there a local place that makes true Fasnacht?

I see I spelled it incorrectly, Fastnacht it is. My mother is disappointed in me.

The best that I think you can do locally is to get them from Weis. They usually have them in from PA.


I just saw the Market in Panther Valley posted they have some.

Bernie, good article that explains all.


AJMS thank you for this information. Never heard of this before. Will run out and buy from WEIS.

ShopRite in Washington had the Paczkis from Canada. $7 for 4. Nice fat doughnuts and so good. I only ate half of mine because the calories, better off eating two candy bars.

Eating a Fastnacht on Ash Wednesday or during Lent kind of defeats the purpose of them...


Had mine yesterday but you know that grocery stores are going to sell them for the next 9 weeks, lol.
