I'm not positive about roll type things, but I had great luck using, um, I believe it was chickpea flour, from Whole Foods, when making a cake for a gluten intolerant co-worker.

Ugh, yeah, I've been having some less-than-cheery weeks too :( No fun, and definitely requires some recovery time. ((hugs))
