I was always under the impression (though I can't back it up with any passages) that the Dwarves, specifically those of the lonely mountain, created the fireworks and other trinkets, which Gandalf eagerly collected in his travel. I would assume that his fireworks were often augmented with elven magic and charms of his own

Why not? I can easily see Gandalf, resting by his campfire while on the long road, sitting back and meditating on the "bigger picture" while tinkering with his fireworks...
