That is usually the type of mould that I find on uneaten food. It might just be a coincidence, but I never find it at any other time.

remove most of it and let it dry out.

mold is everywhere, you cannot destroy it, you must learnt to adapt to it.

Will it kill my roaches?

I would just spot clean it and remove any wet food.
