Level 498

Level 498 is the thirteenth level in Meringue Moor and the one hundred twenty-first ingredients level. To pass this level, you must bring down 2 hazelnuts and 2 cherries and score at least 40,000 points in 40 moves or fewer. If you have extra moves in this level, Sugar Crush will activate striped candies and score you additional points.

Difficulty

 * Compared to most other levels in the episode, this level is much easier. The Liquorice Locks and chocolates can prove annoying but an be easily removed.
 * Also, there are only five colours in this level, making the creation of special candies easier.
 * However, the ingredient only appears when there are certain moves left.
 * On Facebook, each one appears when there are 32, 24, 16, and 8 moves left.
 * On iOS and Android versions, whenever an ingredient is dropped down, the player MUST wait another eight moves before the next one shows up.

Strategy

 * Colour bomb + striped candy combinations are extremely helpful here.
 * Clear the bottom of chocolate as quickly as you can and prevent it from spreading.
 * Clearing the Liquorice Locks is a key if you want to get the ingredients down ASAP.

Trivia

 * This is one of the few levels in this episode in which icing (meringue) is not present.

Glitch

 * On mobile versions, if an ingredient remains on the board too long before it is dropped, the next one would take a longer time to show up. If each one drags on for too long, the fourth ingredient would likely never show up at all. To counteract this glitch, it is recommended to reserve some striped candy to quickly bring down the ingredient with no delay.
