Mora (Paris) have an online ordering site – I ordered Bergamot essence and white marzipan from them and it arrived fast and safely to me in Spain.

Barcelona

Coloimport (metro Rocafort and online) has ingredients from all over the world and I found French T45 flour (Francine) there.

Gadgets cuina (various shops and online) has a nice selection of baking equipment and some useful specialist ingredients like inverted sugar.

A Taste of home (metro Rocafort) sells UK products, including some typical UK baking ingredients like caster sugar, self-raising flour and marzipan, which you can also make yourself.  The shop is a little expensive (you should also check the sell-by-dates) but lots of interesting stuff and spices.
