I'm pretty new to this, but I recently had a jar that looked similar to that.
Except the jar was split Solid white on the top half and it turned out fine!
After another week the whole jar was solid white.
It fruited fine.

Well it smelled fine, nice and mushroomy however it is getting these light and dark amber
colored droplets forming and with white growth expanding.
Any ideas what is going on with this?

looks like a contam IMO. creamy, ice cream looking growth is often indicative of bacteria.

Doesnt look like spore innoculant. If thats contaminant its playing well with the rest of the cake. Ive seen live tissue cultures show weird knodules and get bulky like that..

Guess it's time to put it in the yard and call it art.
I set it up in a tree to let it do what it's gonna do...Outside.

I'd say that's a contam. I had cakes similar to that and the orange droplets quickly spread to the others and turned the cakes orange. When I picked them up it came off on my hands.. Gross.

The orange droplets are metabolites, a fluid myc excretes to fight off contams (similar to what white blood cells do for our body). They are actually fighting the infection and are not the source. If you had metabolites on several cakes they were contaminated from the get go.
