I think that this would be good for "Jelly Bellies" as another product as the coating is almost certainly applied with the same tumblers that coat jelly beans and such.
I STILL want to know why the Euros are ahead of us in this critical technology??

Yeah thats the post i was looking for ,thanks .Arnie

jelly beans are coated in carnuba wax and a hardening agent.
the wax is for the shine.
the hardening agent can be sugar or a fat modifier.

There's a "Precision Bullets" company in Texas that appears to be offering something like this.
