Level 623

Difficulty

 * The liquorice locks prevent ingredients from settling onto the bottom.
 * There is a stuck zone on both extreme ends of the board.
 * The ingredients are worth 40,000 points . Hence, an additional 10,000 points is required to earn one star.

Strategy

 * The locked candies must be freed as early as possible, before the ingredient reaches the bottom of the board.
 * Refrain from making any matches situated at the stuck zones, or you will have a hard time moving the ingredient back into position.

Difficulty

 * The presence of six colours makes it hard to create special candies.
 * The ingredients are worth 40,000 points. Hence, an additional 65,000 points for two stars and an additional 160,000 points for three stars have to be earned through matching of candies.
 * The player is required to earn an additional 1,860 points per move for two stars.
 * The player is required to earn an additional 4,580 points per move for three stars. This amount is higher than the maximum amount of points a striped candy during sugar crush can provide which in this case is 3,540 points.
