I was wondering if it is really necessary to roll your cakes in vermiculite after 100% colonization or can I just simply dunk them and fruit them that way

You can dunk and fruit.
But a vermiculite layer is beneficial. It prevents the cakes from drying out and provides a nice micro climate (triggers pinning).

Also do I need to sterelize the vermiculite or is it safe to use out of the bag

You should watch this video. If I remember it right it shows how to dunk and roll.

I didn't roll or dunk any of my cakes until after the first flush. I have been dunking them in cold water for about 24 hours and then just putting them back in my fruiting chamber and they have been doing pretty well. The one I did decide to roll in vermiculite is still working on its second flush while my others are working on their third. Just what I have experienced with my BRF jars:smirk:

If you are serious about this hobby youll definitely wanna invest in some verm.  One big bag will last you a while and is less than 10 dollars. 
If you ever go to bulk youll use more of it.

Use it right out of the bag too

if u keep the bag of verm sealed after you use it, and while youre using it youre sterile, then you shouldnt need to sterilize it.

i never sterilized my verm for my cakes and its fine
