Hoʻohana ʻia ka mīkini paʻi papa (sugar coating machine) i nā huaʻōlelo no ka lāʻau lapaʻau a me ke kō i nā papa a me nā ʻoihana meaʻai. Hoʻohana ʻia no ka ʻōwili a me ka hoʻomehana ʻana i nā pī a me nā hua ʻai a i ʻole nā anoano.
Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka mīkini paʻi papa papa no ka hana ʻana i nā papa, nā huaʻaʻa kō, ka polishing a me ka ʻōwili ʻana i nā meaʻai i koi ʻia e ka ʻoihana lāʻau lapaʻau, ʻoihana kemika, nā meaʻai, nā keʻena noiʻi a me nā halemai. Hiki iā ia ke hana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau hou no nā keʻena noiʻi. ʻO nā papa ʻaʻahu kō i hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia ke ʻano ʻālohilohi. Hoʻokumu ʻia ka ʻaʻahu paʻa paʻa a hiki i ka crystallization o ke kō ma luna ke pale i ka chip mai ka oxidative deterioration volatilization a uhi i ka ʻono kūpono ʻole o ka chip. Ma kēia ʻano, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka ʻike ʻia ʻana o nā papa a hiki ke hōʻemi ʻia kā lākou hopena i loko o ka ʻōpū o ke kanaka.
