In Toyama, culture of the food, which breathed faith into the life of the city, which in turn, supported the people’s existence, has been handed down from the old days to modem times. I reflected on the lifestyle of ancient people through this study and also investigated the confectionary wood patterns with a focus on the friendship and life of the people. As a result, I realized that there was considerable use of confectionary for Okesoku and Sinkankashi in Buddhist memorial services. In addition, there was considerable use of the wood patterns from 1954 to 1972.
