Ok, so my cakes fell over and I was unable to tend to them for a day a couple days. When i came back some of them were molding. I threw two of them out. One was getting green mold and the other was getting yellow funny dots.

A few other cakes seem like they are getting fuzzy spots cobweb spots. Are these ok or do I have to throw them out too?

My big concern, is that a few of the cakes are getting marshmallow lumps growing off them. They are white and look like mycelium, but I do not know if it is natural for them to grow in big bubbles. I wasn't sure so I put them in a separate plastic Tupperware. The one that has all the bubbley marshmallows growing on it is now starting to pin. I wonder if this is from getting perlite stuck on the cake?

Am I okay?

Here is what it looks like.

Well if it's cobweb don't worry, easy mold to combat, just cut off molded piece and apply Oyster shell flour or anything alkaline (baking soda), this will prevent it from growing back, also spray with diluted H2O2 to prevent other molds.
[EDIT] also that looks like a deformed chunk of mushroom tissue... not any contamination, just a deformed mushroom.
