Default to make a candy shell

I've always wondered if a Belgian chocolate version of m&m's has ever
or can be made. I looked in rec.food.chocolate's history, and the only
reference to the making of the candy shell is that is contains an
ingredient derived from the lac beetle...confectioners shellac. I'd
love to be able to construct my own little fancy m&m's, but I fear the
candy coating process must be complicated. Anybody have any ideas how
it is done?
