Oplatki Christmas Wafers are a wonderful Christmas Eve tradition celebrated in Poland and other Slav countries.
The Christmas wafers consist of 4 wafers(3 white and one pink) which measure 3 x 5-1/2 inches, embossed with beautiful Nativity scenes, 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.

The Oplatki has arrived!
The Oplatki arrived is excellent shape. I am very pleased with the service I received from the St. Jude Shop and would not hesitate to order again in the future.

Christmas Wafer(Opataki)
It would not be Christmas Eve without the Opataki. Thank you for having it available.

Great, fast shipping
I received the Oplatek in less than a week after ordering. The packaging was in a small box, so the Oplatek arrived unbroken. I will be ordering this product from them again! The Oplatek themselves came in a nice envelope with information about the custom of sharing them.

Oplatki for the win!
Ever since I was a little girl I remember my family’s tradition of having to break a piece of the Oplatki on Christmas Eve. I am so excited to be able to continue this tradition with my family. It arrived quickly and well packaged to prevent it from being broken in shipment.

Christmas Wafers
Can't really write a full review since I ordered these early to be safe but don't plan on using them until Christmas, but they arrived safely, no damage and look like what I remember as a kid.

Polish Oplatki
Our family is celebrating a Polish Christmas this year. We have not shared Oplatki in many years. I thought it would add a nice touch to the celebration for my adult children and grandchildren.

True To Their Word
St. Jude Shop Inc. delivered the product as promised for the price advertised. Waiting until Christmas to open the sealed envelope of Oplatki. The product looks very good, and I received it in perfect condition due to their meticulous protective wrapping and shipping.
