...and letting it dry out before placing cakes in. Will this help prevent contamination?

bleach and amonia!!?? i'm probably mistaken here, but isn't that a dangerous combo? doesn't that release a poison gas? I know that there are two very common household cleaners that you shouldn't mix, but I can't remember if those are them or not....
edit- oh, funny...that was sarcasm...gee...i'm about as sharp as a rubber ball this morning...

yes, I was being sarcastic. that's why there is a smiley with a knife through his head at the end of it

but back to the thread topic...lysol...i used to use the stuff quite frequently, but i've also converted more to rubbing alcohol...i certainly still use lysol from time to time, but i don't trust it very much...it leave behind a scent...and whatver that chemical is it can't be good...and rubbing alc is way cheaper anyways....i'd use lysol on countertops and sometimes to clean large tubs (fruiting chambers and incubators) but on those tubs i'd probably rinse with a paper towel and water to clean off any residue....i'd always use rubbing alcohol on anything that were going to come in contact with myc though...no lysol for that...just search for lysol mutants and you'll see why

fragrance/scents are usually derivatives of benzene which is an organic compound.

Wiping it with alcohol...or a mild bleach/water mix.

This creates mustard gas, which will fuck you up.
Fun Experiment:
1. Make water balloons with 50/50 bleach/amonia 2. Throw in open windows of cars driving by, or at neighbors you don't particularly like 3. Call someone to make your bail...

I know a thing or 2... most of the lab work I did was protein or DNA extractions. I wouldn't know where to begin extracting the active part of fungi
