I must have tried this one about 15-20 times now, I'd say. My three best results so far were twice 6 wrapped left and once 6 striped left (the latter being the most frustrating: I mean, c'mon, striped candies are supposed to be the "easy" part of the order!).

Based on that (modest) experience, my opinion is that this level is not as bad as most comments suggest, although it is definitely tricky. But mostly, I think it's not as much dependent on luck as people say. (DW level 556, that's a pure-luck level, to take a recent example.) It also requires careful planning.

As already said, it's important to focus on wrapped candies and to try to produce cascades (e.g., with wrapped-striped or wrapped-wrapped combos), so that others will form. That, of course, is based on luck. Also, whenever you have an opportunity, try forming a colour bomb-striped combo to make progress with the striped order. Not too early, though. Ideally, do it right after move 25, so it should take care of the candy bombs and you won't have to worry about them anymore until the end.

Those were my first impressions. Maybe I'll change my mind in another 100 tries. :-)
