SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Have you eaten a paczki yet today?

It's Fat Tuesday, and here in Michiana, that means one thing -- paczki time!

The Polish pastry is basically a fancy donut.

It comes in a variety of flavors: strawberry, lemon, and of course, the traditional prune.

On Tuesday, local bakeries made hundreds!

We stopped by Indulgence Cafe in South Bend where they only makes paczki two days out of the year.
