[Origin of Hakata Torimon]

The famous Fukuoka Hakata festival "Hakata Dontaku," held annually on May 3rd and 4th.
The Dutch word for holiday "Zondag" [Zondag], which was a popular term in the Meiji era, evolved into the Hakata dialect word "Dontaku."
Among the crowd in the parade, those dressed in Dontaku costumes, playing the shamisen, and sounding flutes and drums as they march are called "Torimon" in the Hakata dialect.
The bun wrapped in a stylish outfit with a milky aroma perfectly matches the name "Hakata Torimon." This is the origin of "Hakata Torimon."
