Title: Green spots
Post by: jivangilad on May 14, 2008, 12:37:14 PM
Hi.
I have taken two cakes, after colonized, and put in a plastic box.
after a few days they started to have green spots.
I threw away one, and kept the other.
It started to grow pins.
Now I am not sure if it is contamination. Also I thought contamination is unlikely, after colonization, so how did this happen?
What should I do with the one that is left.
I thought mabe it is because they are in the kitchen, and so get contamited, or mabe I put bit too much water.

Throw it out.
Green = Bad

Are you sure it's green and not blue? If you wipe it gently off with a white napkin, does the green stick to the napkin? Then it's mold, otherwise it's bruising.

It doesnt wipe.
But to me it looks like mold.

Can you have a look?

That's bruising.
Your cakes look fine.

This are good news, luckily I didn't throw this one too.
This is amazonian type.
They took a few months to colonize, but quickly give fruits.
