Level 282

Level 282 is the seventh level in Candy Clouds (Episode 20) and the 71st ingredients level. To pass this level, you must bring down 2 hazelnuts and 2 cherries and score at least 40,000 points in 35 moves or fewer. When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated.

Difficulty

 * The layout of the board is inconvenient.
 * There is chocolate at the start of the level, and removing it can be difficult if there are no matches at the bottom. The chocolate can isolate the wrapped candy in marmalade.
 * The mystery candies on the right can yield unexpected results when a striped candy blasts through it, such as another multilayered icing or even worse, a bomb; in which case the level is likely to be failed.
 * In each of the 4x4 islands, there can be shortage of matches.
 * 35 moves are not a lot.
 * Ingredients fall down very quickly, and can interfere with the matching.

Strategy

 * First, remove the chocolate. You can do this with or without the use of a coconut wheel.
 * If you decide to use one, remove the marmalade on the coconut wheel at the top, then drag it horizontally to the right. The 3 resulting vertical striped candies should remove the majority of the chocolate. If you got the marmalade on the wrapped candy removed, it will also explode, taking care of the rest of the chocolate for you. You have to take care so the explosion does not activate the remaining coconut wheel though.
 * If you are lucky to have a lot of moves down the board, you can try to make moves to destroy chocolate without using the top coconut wheel. It is better if marmalade is removed in the process.
 * While you remove the chocolate, blast the given horizontal striped candies if you can to remove some of the icing on the right, and make more if you can.
 * Once the chocolate is out of the way, you should have a coconut wheel at the near bottom of the board, ideally at the 2nd square bottom up. Switch it with the candy above, it should create 3 horizontal striped candies that blast the icing and the mystery candies.
 * Candies will now fall down the lower-right island, then the upper-right one. If you're lucky to have all the icing removed and no game-ruining blockers from mystery candies, then it's pretty straightforward now. THE INGREDIENTS EXIT FROM THE TOP RIGHT SQUARE.
 * Make matches to get rid of any leftover blockers and bring the ingredients down. If you still have a coconut wheel remaining, activate it to create horizontal striped candies to help. Try creating more of your own if you can.
 * Colour bombs and wrapped candies don't do much on this level, unless they are combined with striped candies. Wrapped + striped candy can blast through a large area and be very useful, while colour bomb + striped candy can create vertical ones on the islands. It's advisable that you do this after the coconut wheels have been used up, though, as they can accidentally activate them.

Trivia

 * Bringing the ingredients down gives the player enough points to meet the target score.
