Know any sources for beni imo (purple sweet potato) powder or flakes?

I've searched the internets looking for this stuff, which I need to make beni imo ice cream. It's also known as Okinawan Sweet Potato and Purple Sweet Potato. I live in Wyoming, so I'm going to need an online source for it. I found one source for it, but of course there's nowhere to add it to my cart on that site (http://www.okinawa-shop.jp/en/food/beni-imo-powder-p-187).

If anyone wants to ship me some, I can pay you in advance with shipping fees included, of course. Thank you!

Kalustyan's has a "sweet potato flour, extra fine" (try searching for sweet potato) - you could call them and ask if it's what you need.
