1. A Polish deep-fried pastry of real equatorial ambition, filled to structural capacity with rose hip jam, prune, or custard, then glazed, dusted, or candied-orange-peeled into full ceremonial dress; distinguished from a common doughnut by its refusal to leave any interior space unoccupied.
2.colloq. Glazed and filled to the point of architectural tension. Whatever is inside is not a suggestion. The glaze is load-bearing.
In a sentence:
"The Dyngus Day spread at the Buffalo parish hall included a tray of thiccc paczki, each one sitting on the table like a small, confident planet. The custard-filled ones had to be handled with both hands and a plan."
Etymology:
From Polish paczek, diminutive of pac, meaning 'bundle' or 'pack,' from a Slavic root related to packing tightly. The diminutive suffix was applied with considerable optimism.
The custard-filled ones required both hands and a plan and I think that is the most complete set of instructions any food has ever generated for itself.
Yes. Paczki was admitted to the Thiccctionary on July 30, 2026 and filed in the Foods of Substance section. The ruling on file: Admitted. Every subject in the catalogue is judged on its curves, not its size.
What makes a paczki thiccc?
Glazed and filled to the point of architectural tension. Whatever is inside is not a suggestion. The glaze is load-bearing.
Is "thiccc" spelled with three c's?
Yes. The Thiccctionary house spelling uses three c's, distinguishing the editorial register from the colloquial "thicc" (two c's) and standard "thick" (one c).
