This one ended up being not too terrible for me, I beat it in 5 tries, no boosters, though only 1 star. I actually found the previous level much more difficult but maybe that's just b/c of my hatred for bombs. One thing I did on my winning board which I'm sure helped is to scroll back out & in to get a better starting board. I was playing on mobile, I know you can't do that for FB. I could just see right away I had a terrible board & I only had to scroll out & in once to get a MUCH better one. I think maybe that's the key to passing actually is a good starting board. I was even able to make a wrapped/striped combo before the cake bomb was even broken & that of course helped me to take care of the cake bomb. Then once it was broken I was able to make a cpl of stripes & a color bomb but didn't end up needing any of them. I think I had 12 moves once I broke it & not a large amount of jellies left so felt pretty confident I could pass. I did try the suggestion to get the top & bottom jellies first before breaking the cake bomb in previous tries but it didn't seem to work for me. For me breaking that cake bomb first was definitely the way to go. But I really can't stress enough the importance of a good starting board. If you're playing on mobile or iPad, I'd suggest scrolling in & out like I did until you get a good one.
