I definitely agree with Easy. 1st try, 3 stars(113,880 points), 11 moves left. No boosters. I was worried for a bit at first that I'd have another pre-nerf 181 type situation on my hands but was pleasantly surprised to find how easy this one was. The key for me is to just focus on one combo or special at a time. This might sound obvious but for a long time on levels like this, I would just make all the specials I saw that were available but then most would just get ruined once I set others off. So now I just go slow & steady, firing off each combo as I make them. The only exception being if I see an opportunity to make a color bomb & already have one on the board. I had 2 I was hoping to get together but another thing I learned with levels like this is to not waste moves(actually that goes for all levels). If I can get them together great but if in the meantime I have an opportunity to do a CB/striped which was the case here, I just do it. In the process this time I lost my 2nd color bomb but I don't always. I personally find wrapped/striped the best combo for these types of levels. And unlike some of the others, even if you make a w/s combo on the last row & set it off, it still will do damage to the last row in the icing the ingredients are on. I hit that row once twic that way. There are a ton of great combos you can make with only 4 colors. Anyway I think this is the first level I got 3 stars on in this episode but more importantly, I enjoyed it! What's with making all these crazy hard levels to begin with, but then make all these easy ones? Not that I'm complaining(about the easy ones that is lol).
