The sweetener used in Crystal Light can be tasted by humans, but not broken down by our bodies, thereby giving us no calorie/nutrition intake. That being said, mold is not the same as us and some forms can even grow on and break down tree bark to get needed calories/nutrition - again a source of energy that is not available to us since we cannot break it down. The mold you see in the container just happens to be a form that can live off the sweetener in crystal light, otherwise it would not be there. In a research project I was working on, a fellow team of scientists were having some success with engineering bacteria to the point that they could live off of breaking down PCB pollution, thereby hopefully giving us a future option of cheap natural pollution cleanup.

Light can have varying effects on mold growth depending on the type of mold. Some molds thrive in darkness and will grow more rapidly in low-light conditions, while others require some amount of light to grow. Ultraviolet (UV) light can inhibit mold growth by damaging its DNA and cell structure. However, visible light may not have as significant of an impact on mold growth.

Does mold need light to grow?

No. However, if mold has been growing then just drying the area and/or allowing sunlight to hit it does not kill the mold spores. The spores are dormant reproductive agents of the mold which allow it to regrow when conditions are right. The next time it is moist the mold will regrow. Mold is endemic (everywhere) in the atmosphere.
