Level 445

Level 445 is the fifth level in Butterscotch Boulders and the one hundred eighth ingredients level. To pass this level, you must bring down 1 Hazelnut and 1 Cherry and score at least 20,000 points in 30 moves or less. When you have extra moves left in this level, Sugar Crush will activate Striped Candy and score you additional points.

Difficulty

 * This level looks easy, but like other very hard levels in the past, looks are deceiving. It is actually incredibly difficult for many reasons:
 * There are two Candy Bombs that only have 17 moves. They are behind many layers of meringue and locked candies and will explode in no time.
 * There are only 30 moves to bring down both ingredients. With all those meringues, this is not enough moves and the level becomes difficult, especially with Shuffles being frequent at the start, eating many moves on Facebook.
 * But the worst part - there are NO exits over the two end rows where the ingredients fall, which means they must be switched onto another lane. Nigh-on impossible with only 30 moves and the bombs to worry about.
 * Overall, this level is incredibly hard despite the easy look about it, typical of difficult Ingredient Drop Levels.

Stars

 * 1 star: 20,000 points
 * 2 stars: 60,000 points
 * 3 stars: 100,000 points

Strategy

 * Try and have the ingredients slide into the lanes next to the ones they come out of. You don't want to have to wait moves later in the game trying to move them over yourself.
 * Use combinations to quickly clear the Meringue to make room for more combinations. EVERY MOVE COUNTS!
 * [Taken from comments] If you can break a lock one space diagonal to a corner, while ensuring you break neither of the other two (above and to the left (top-left corner) or right (top-right corner)) shielding the corner, it is possible for ingredients to slip through that gap and move into the inner column. This is difficult to do, but make sure you are doing it whenever you are given the opportunity.
