Is shellac used to coat m and candy?

Shellac is not used to coat meat or candy. Shellac is a natural resin secreted by the female lac bug, Kerria lacca. It is primarily used as a wood finish and furniture polish due to its protective and glossy properties. Shellac is generally not considered safe for consumption and therefore, it is not used in the food industry. Food-grade coatings for confectionery items typically involve ingredients such as waxes, sugar, or chocolate.
