Level 539

Difficulty

 * You are very limited on moves, which makes this level really difficult.
 * Jellies under the icing are a bit hard to reach.
 * 9-move candy bombs spawn rates are very high.
 * Holes and five-layered icing are actually a worry due to the bombs going in between them.
 * The jellies are worth 106,000 points. Hence, an additional 44,000 points is required for one star.

Strategy

 * Try to make as many special candies as you can. The colour bomb + striped candy combination is the most helpful to get rid of the single icing at the top. Keep an eye on the candy bombs dropping down for only 9 moves, making the level very hard. Try to clear the jelly on the top first and then clear the edges of the board.
 * If no combination is available, try to make as many striped candies as you can - sometimes the conveyor belt produces it by cascading.

Trivia

 * This level is part of the trend where every 39 levels after 422 is at least hard. It is the fourth level of this trend.
