Candy Crush Saga Level 123 - Episode 9: Peppermint Palace

Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

Work on the middle before the sides.

In this level, you will want to clear the meringue and licorice as quickly as you can so you can then use special candies to get rid of the jelly. You want to work your way from the middle first and leave the sides for last. That way, you don't have to worry about the chocolate until later on.

Control the chocolate.

Since there are chocolates on both sides in this board, it is important to have moves ahead of time before you free the chocolate. You should avoid freeing both sides at once as this can easily cause the chocolate to overtake your board. Special candies and special candy combos will really help here since they will break jelly and remove chocolate at the same time.

Use striped candy combos.

special candies are obviously important on this level. But special candy combos will really get you through this level fast. The best to use are striped candy + wrapped candy , which can help you remove all of the chocolate at once (and clear a ton of jelly in the process!) and Colorbomb + striped, which will help you clear almost anything.

Candy Crush Level 123 Video

Level 123 is a Jelly level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to clear all the jelly and score 80,000 points in 35 moves. In order to complete a Jelly level, you must remove all of the jelly on the board. You remove jelly from the board by making a match with a piece of candy on top of the jelly. In the higher levels, you can sometimes get stuck on double jelly levels. On those you have to make two matches on top of a square of jelly in order to clear it from the board! We've got all the tips to beat jelly levels you need here at candy crush cheats!

How To Beat Jelly Levels:

  • Your only objective in jelly levels is to clear the jelly. That means you should only be worried about making matches on top of the jelly, and not other parts of the board.
  • If you can't make a match on top of the jelly, try using jelly fish! Jelly fish act like normal candies in that you match them with other candies of the same color. But when you make a match with a jelly fish, its will activate and swim off the screen. Then three new jelly fish will swim on screen and eat three jelly squares. For double jelly squares, this will count as one match. If jelly is stuck under a blocker that isn't licorice, the jelly fish will still eat the jelly from under the blocker.
  • Jelly squares at the top of the board and at the corners can be tricky, since these are the hardest spot to match candies. Watch out for these, and try to clear the board first.
  • When you clear all the jelly from the level, you will get a sugar crush. This will give you a ton of points.

Bonus Tip: Double Jelly Layers

AI

Double-layer jelly requires two hits. Plan your special candies to sweep the same areas twice for maximum efficiency.

Level 123 was the worst for me. Just couldn't seem to get the right combination when & where I needed it. I got it down to 2-3 jellies left so many times. Finally I'm past it. :-/ I think I restarted the board more on this level then any before it. Don't give up.

I think this is it for me. I cannot do this level one more time. It is too frustrating. I enjoyed the game up to now. It gets boring doing the same level over and over and over. Good luck everyone...

The key for this level is to make and combine one stripy candy with colour bomb. If u can create this combination at the beginning of the game u have a very good chance to beat it!!!

It gets frustrating when you get 2 moves and the owl falls. I would really like to know how that is possible ? And I agree I like a challenge though being stuck on the same one for a long time gets boring,as well as the owl falling after 2 moves.

Been stuck since June. Beginning to think the games not worth it. It's not that you win the level, it's when it decides to let you win the level. Patience waring thin!!!!!!!

This level is hard to do. I tried everything.
Mirella Frye's avatar
Literally did it one time after reading the advice and I beat it. I'm so happy right now. That has never happened before. I'm sure I'll get stuck again after 3 more levels though.
