I'm not sure how to send a link from Instagram, but I just saw a video of someone doing this the other day. The instagram is Montezuma788 and it is a video from Sept. 7th. They use a small spray bottle with alcohol and water (or just water), spray it into the mold cavity then lightly spray over the water droplets with cocoa butter. I'm not entirely sure how it doesn't cause blooming, but the final result looks the same. Hope that helps!

Yes, it’s only water because my experiments with alcohol/ water mixtures failed but Vodka should work.

Alternative way: Freeze a mould for around 5 minutes. Put it upside down on a tray with hot water. Wait for water to condense and form drops. Spray carefully colored cocoa butter. It’s fun!
