Gabby, "roulette" might not be the right word, my French is almost
non-existent (as no doubt you noticed ;^)) but "sucre en poudre"
wouldn't be it, either. We're looking for something in between the
French version of granulated sugar and confectioners/powdered/icing
sugar. I'd be curious to hear what the right word *is*.
