Sorry for the delayed response, I only saw this now.

My strategy was to simply eliminate the bombs in the beginning and hopefully create some striped or wrapped candies while in the process (I think that would be obvious though). My next move was to create wrapped candies and then commence with a striped-wrapped combo. Otherwise, a lot of other potential striped candies would be blown away from the blast radius of the wrapped+striped combo.

After that, I just looked to create as many striped candies as possible and strategically try to land them next to one another. It's important to be patient on this level, as the space blockers affect the cascade effect.

I've only earned one star on this particular level and have only passed it two times out of about seven tries. I have earned enough for three stars on at least three occassions. It seems on those attempts, I always had more opportunities for color bombs. Those are practically useless by the way, except for the points they incur.

Though this one is pretty difficult, don't be discouraged. I personally feel that this particular level is a bit luck-based, so you'll have to wait until you get just the right board. For me at least, 461 seems to be the most frustrating level I've encountered. I hate that one! As for this stage/world, I think that level 664 might be even more difficult to pass; however, it isn't as hard to get three stars in that one.
