PULASKI, WI (WTAQ)- A Pulaski bakery had many hands hard at work Monday, preparing for their biggest day of the year.
Thousands of Paczkis to be carried out their doors of Smurawa’s Bakery Tuesday, as many be sure to get their polish pastry for Paczki Day.
Greg Smurawa says because of that, Monday is a full day of baking and prepping, and he took all the help he could get.
“Our group is about 25 to 30 people. A lot of them are former employees that come out to help and others are family members that take a day off of work.”
Smurawa says the delicious polish pastry is not quick to turn out.
“Your talking at least two and a half hours a batch from start to finish.”
Smurawa says it also takes time to fill them and display them.
As time consuming as that sounds, they have to turn out a lot of batches.
“Last year we through over 36,000 Paczkis.”
Smurawa says Tuesday is even more work, as many are lined up outside the Pulaski bakery before the doors open and as crazy at it seems, everyone who comes gets their polish pastry.
