If they don't have what you are looking for there is a candy shop on 9 and 20 in East Greenbush right next to the IHOP

I don't know what it's called it's in the peter harris plaza there, right next to the IHOP. A very lovely and clean IHOP, I will add. They had some flavorings, loads of food dye. You also may want to try honest weight food coop. In there bakers section they have a whole bunch of flavorings.
