Come and celebrate with us FAT THURSDAY ! Have you ever heard what the FAT THURSDAY is ???
Fat Thursday is a Christian tradition in some countries marking the last Thursday before Lent and is associated with the celebration of Carnival. Because Lent is a time of fasting, the days leading up to Ash Wednesday provide the last opportunity for feasting (including simply eating forbidden items) until Easter.
Traditionally it is a day dedicated to eating, when people meet in their homes or cafés with their friends and relatives and eat large quantities of sweets, cakes and other meals usually not eaten during Lent.
Among the most popular all-national dishes served on that day are pączki in Poland or Berliners, fist-sized donuts filled with rose hip jam, and angel wings (faworki), puff pastry fingers served with powdered sugar.
Sweet Bakery By Aga which operates at Eden Rural Foyer will be hosting the FAT THURSDAY on 27.02.2025, between 10am - 5pm. Come along and try traditional Polish Donuts (PACZKI ) !!!
