Dropped a cake. Good or toss?

By extremely unlucky chances, I dropped a cake on my kitchen floor after removing it from a jar. It bounced a few times. Should I still dunk and roll/use it or what? I really don't wanna risk any contams with the rest of the cakes. Your thoughts?

coke bottle fruiting chambers are super simple. however if you cant do it then when you roll it, roll it last and put it in the same chamber. imho, i think it will be fine in the same chamber. cakes are pretty resistant.

Every cake is precious. I'd isolate it to its own chamber. Make something ghetto, better than tossing it

You could drop a cake in the toilet and it'd be alright, fully colonized cakes are contam resistant continue as normal definitely no need for a separate chamber. There are millions of contams landing on it in open air as soon as you birth it, fruiting is not a sterile process

It was contaminated. Hopefully it didn't spread to any other cakes.

Contaminated with what? When cakes are colonized, they are contaminant resistant. Unless you already had a bacterial/mold problem... You probably didn't get one by just dropping it and rinsing it off..

Then I guess it coincidentally was the only contammed one out of the jar? My partner and I joked about how me dropping it might've been a sign it as contam and i should've just tossed it, which now i guess I should have.lol. It was really weird, two different colors. one was pink dots/bubbles on the top, and surrounding the center was a light brown, hairlike collection. It was an obvious contam, not brusing. Any chance it could've spread?

Spores spread on the tiniest currents of wind. Do you think it spread when you dropped it?

This ^
You are confusing things in this thread by describing two separate things that happened to one cake. You dropped the cake which is basically irrelevant to anything. When this happens, rinse it off and continue as usual. You don't need to quarantine a cake that sat on the floor for a few seconds...
Then you say that this same cake is contaminated and give a weird description but no pics. Post pics.
