Sugar panning, or simply panning, is a method for adding a sugar-based "shell" to confectionery or nuts.
Popular products that employ this process in their manufacture include dragées, chocolate buttons, gobstoppers, konpeitō and jelly beans. Jelly beans use soft panning while the others are examples of hard panning. The process was initially invented in 17th-century France to make jordan almonds.
