If it is a liquid, it's not what you need for decorating chocolate bonbons.

 

Color painted into molds needs to be cocoa butter based and solid at room temp.  I like Roxy & Rich, sampler sets on sale here:  https://www.chocolat-chocolat.com/product/assortments-of-11-pearl-gemstone-cocoa-butters/

 

They've got powders. 

 

Their colors are $1/gram, which is half the price chef rubber has for red, for example (in the smallest quantities): https://www.americolorcorp.com/product/3-gram-powdered-food-color/?attribute_pa_powder-food-colors=red

 

Gets to be a bunch more expensive when you buy in bulk, but I just find it strange there's no info on anyone using them for chocolate work online
