Level 356

Level 356 is the sixth level in Fudge Islands and the seventy-second candy order level. To pass this level, you must collect 5 striped candy + striped candy combinations and score at least 40,000 points in 50 moves or fewer. If you have extra moves left in this level, Sugar Crush will activate striped candies and score you additional points.

Difficulty

 * Since the board is divided into 4 quadrants, making striped candies is very hard. Combining them is even harder.
 * A 10-move bomb drops every 5 moves; these can be quite hard to clear.

Strategy
Be wary when you combine two striped candies; be sure they will not destroy another striped candy or set off a chain reaction. Pay attention to where the teleporters connect. In fact, the hardest part of this level avoiding setting off the striped candy before you have a match next to it. However, once you get familiar with how a move in one quadrant affects the other candies, and get skilled at moving the striped candies around, this level is quite easily achievable.

Therefore, moves in the far right bottom quadrant of the board will move candy in all the other quadrants - if you just need to move a candy down a few spaces in the top right, for example, make a move that affects the corresponding columns in the bottom far right, and your candy will drop into place.

Also, just make as many striped candies as possible. You will have to sacrifice some to win.
