Level 959

Difficulty

 * The cherry is trapped behind a liquorice lock, and isolated from the main board.
 * The ingredient path is blocked by 5-layer icing and popcorn, which are also isolated from the main board.
 * Mystery candies spawn in this level. These may help to break the blockers or give even more.
 * The ingredient is worth 10,000 points, which is equal to the one-star target score.

Strategy

 * Create many horizontal striped candies to break the blockers on the isolated part. You need at least 10 of them. (one for breaking liquorice lock, four for breaking popcorn and activating the colour bomb after popcorn is broken, five for breaking the five-layered icing square) It may be hard, because matching spaces are limited. Alternatively, wrapped candy + striped candy combinations are useful, if you have a hard time aiming the horizontal striped candies on the correct rows.

Trivia
You will need to activate 9 striped candies in the right time. 5 for the icing, 3 for the popcorn and 1 for the popcorn's color bomb (it's isolated and cannot be switch with another candy.
