There have been some changes to the game physics between the old version and the new. In most levels this makes the new version harder. In this level, it makes the new version easier.

On the old version (which you'll get if you play in Internet Explorer; still depicts hard levels as hexagons), the ingredient NEVER falls to the left. It can't. This is why 2621 was so much easier on the old version than the new. In the new version on 2621, because an ingredient could fall diagonally into a space fed by a dispenser, an ingredient could get to an area of the board where it could never escape.

Same principle works here to the opposite benefit. In the new version (what you get if you play in Chrome; depicts hard levels with skull symbol), because an ingredient CAN fall diagonally before a dispenser dispenses into that space, you can make the ingredient fall left. Not reliably, but it can happen sometimes. Use a CB to clear a color of one of the bottom 3 striped candies (so long as it's not the same color as the top one), or the candy to the bottom-and-right of the bottom striped candy, and things should fall creating a gap where the top striped candy was, and in the new version, that gap could be filled either by the ingredient or the dispenser. In the old version, the dispenser would always win out.
