Where the reagents come from
Elemental Blasting Powder. Made with Elemental Blasting Powder (Engineering, Outland Engineering) from 1 
Mote of Fire and 2 
Mote of Earth, 4 per craft. At lowest listed prices that makes one Elemental Blasting Powder for 13 gold18 silver, against 27 gold20 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 12 other recipes (12 Engineering); Flying Machine takes the most, 20 per craft.
Netherweave Cloth. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 17 other recipes (9 Tailoring, 6 Engineering and 2 Blacksmithing); the most per craft: Relic of the Past V (Tailoring, 7 per craft), Relic of the Past III (Tailoring, 6 per craft), Relic of the Past IV (Tailoring, 6 per craft), Bolt of Netherweave (Tailoring, 5 per craft) and Relic of the Past I (Tailoring, 5 per craft).

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of White Smoke Flare cost 27 gold29 silver. Most of that is Elemental Blasting Powder - 1 at 27 gold20 silver each, 27 gold20 silver, 99.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 28 gold72 silver per craft, 9 gold57 silver per item at 3 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 3 gold26 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −17 gold51 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 48 silver90 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 17 gold99 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -66.0% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 998 units across 18 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
Costs use each reagent’s lowest listed price; the estimate is the crafted item’s lowest listed price, times the items one craft makes, minus those reagents and Blizzard’s 5% sale cut. Listings are asking prices, not sales. Recalculated every snapshot and left blank rather than guessed when a price is missing. How we estimate crafting profit →
