torta
Cake : en el proceso industrial de filtración , la torta ( o cake ) es lo que queda retenido en el filtro ( que luego de separarse del liquido se seca y recupera o se descarta )
"...la suspensión a filtrar entra en el conducto inferior, penetra por orificios que se encuentran solo en los marcos que son cuadrados vacíos destinados a recoger la torta resultante de la filtración..."
( explicación del filtro prensa extraída de la guía de seminarios de farmacotecnia II de la Facultad de Farmacia de la Universidad de Buenos Aires )

Masa
Yo utilizaría "masa" porque ya sabes que en este tipo de contextos todo se trata de una forma general; además, después habla de "thick liquids", algo así como líquidos espesos o consistentes y la masa podría tomarse como algo muy parecido a eso.
Espero haberte ayudado.
Suerte.

Same reference FAQ: "How much dry yeast does it take to replace a cake of yeast?" "This yeast is also known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae/budding, baker's and sometimes brewer's
I have used yeast cakes which are a moist form but now prefer the powder form which is called for in most retail products vs. commercial bakeries..
Hope this is helpful, if not we both know something new. Awatts
