Reset your board until you get a good starting board.
There are three ingredients to drop in this level and not many moves. In order to maximize your chances of getting all your ingredients down, keep resetting your board until you get one where you can make one or two opening moves in the single column on the left.
Form horizontal striped candies.
Horizontal striped candies are your best bet for dropping ingredients down. Thanks to the board shape, they are pretty easy to form. A wrapped candy + striped candy is useful if positioned low enough but this combination is not a necessity for passing the level. If you form a wrapped candy in the column closest to the left column, it will clear a candy or two from the left column. A double wrapped combination can be very useful for clearing out a few candies.
The last ingredient.
In level 221, your last (third) ingredient will not drop until you have less than 15 moves left. Keep this in mind for storing special candies and prepping for special candy combinations.

Candy Crush Level 221 Video
Level 221 is an ingredients level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to bring the ingredients to the bottom (1 acorn, 1 cherry) and score 50,000 points in 25 moves. The level type first appears in level 11 and has now made over 150 appearances. In order to complete an ingredients level, a player must bring down the shown amount of ingredients to the bottom of the board. There two types of ingredients are cherries an hazelnuts. For every one collected, a player will receive 10,000 points.

How to Beat Ingredients Levels:
- Wrapped candies will do fairly well for ingredients as well. These special candies will crush a large cluster of candies. Therefore, the wrapped candy should be used close to or directly below an ingredient.
- Color bombs can also made a big impact in ingredient levels. For example, you can use one to remove a candy immediately blocking your ingredient or you can combine it with a striped candy to pretty much guarantee your ingredient's exit.
- Striped candies are your best friends in ingredients levels. The reason behind this is that when they are activated, they will clear out an entire row(horizontal) or column(vertical) on the board. However, since vertically striped candies clear an entire column, they are far and away the best weapon in this level type. Always try to ensure that vertically striped candies and your ingredients are in the same column. When they are, the vertically striped candy will clear drop the ingredient in one swift and efficient move. For better results, align multiple candies in the same column.
- As you progress further into the game, you will see your ingredients path to the bottom more and more obstructed by various blockers. To combat this, especially at the bottom, make sure to shift your ingredient to the a clear row or column.
Bonus Tip: Ingredient Drop Path
AIClear blockers in the drop path first. Vertical striped candies are your best friend - they punch through obstacles and push ingredients down fast.
