Level 297 (where you get 15 seconds) has the colour bomb you need already in marmalade and the target score is only 11,000. I believe I remember the 17-second level you are referring to (I can't remember which it is but I think it was in Sweet Surprise - maybe 204 or 211?) and that has loads of +5 candies already encased in marmalade which can be used to reach the score.

However, on this level, a colour bomb does give large points (curiously, colour bomb and stripe doesn't seem to be as effective - probably because of the 60, 120, 180, etc. scoring method for the colour bomb). Colour bomb and wrapped, however, is extremely effective on this level.
