I was surprised to see the rating, I didn't find it insanely hard at all. Three or four tries, three stars, no boosters, with 14 moves to spare. I usually struggle a LOT more with insanely hard levels than this. I didn't get a particularly good board, either, it was no different from the first few attempts when I didn't make it.

The key to this level is to target the popcorn with everything you've got. Don't worry too much about the chocolate or the peripheral blocks at first. The color bombs you get from the popcorn are useful to get rid of blocks and create more specials, combos are of course very useful (I got a few wrappedxstriped combos, which wipe out a lot of blocks. I imagine color bomb x striped would be even better, but I didn't get any of those). Once you get the popcorn out of the way, and use the color bombs, the cascades start flowing, creating special candies.
