Oplatki Christmas Wafers are a wonderful Christmas Eve tradition celebrated in Poland and other Slav countries.

The Christmas wafers consist of 4 white wafers which measure 3 x 5-1/2 inches, embossed with beautiful Nativity scenes, cello wrapped and then placed in a Christmas envelope. The white wafers are traditionally passed around the table and shared with guests on Christmas Eve along with good wishes and blessings. The head of the house shares the pink wafer at midnight with any animals he has as a reminder that we are all God's creatures. For those who are not familiar with the tradition, there is an enclosure included with the Oplatki Christmas wafers which explains the tradition, the rite itself and the symbolism of the rite. The Oplatki wafers are imported from Poland and made only once a year at Christmas time from pure wheat flour and water.

Thank you so much for the speedy service! I realized one week before Christmas Eve that I had forgotten to order the oplatki. It arrived two days before Christmas Eve!
Awesome Oplatek!

WOULDNT BE CHRISTMAS WITHOUT OPLATKY

Arrived in perfect condition! From birth 75 years ago, our family ate Oplatky at our Christmas Eve Meal. My family is Polish on one side and Czech/Slovak on the other and it's a precious tradition I will carry on till I die.

I ordered the Christmas Wafers so that we could continue with our Polish Christmas Eve tradition. It is difficult to find these around where I live as the makeup of our community has changed over the years. Thank goodness for St Jude.
