Candy Crush Saga Level 245 - Episode 17: Chocolate Barn

Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

First make wrapped candy.

Wrapped candies are a lot harder to form than striped candy , so try resetting Candy Crush level 245 till you get a board that looks like it has a ready-made wrapped combination. The first wrapped+striped combination will help make way for more combos. But striped candies are easy to form! Focus on looking for wrapped candy formations.

Keep your eye on the bombs.

The candy bombs in Candy Crush level 245 have 12 moves--which is generous and lets you be able to play the game without worrying about a bomb exploding. Keep an eye on the board to look for bomb combinations to clear them but don't get obsessed! There are plenty of moves to get rid of them. The bombs will help you keep an eye on the board and let you not fixate on one area--it'll also give you the chance to keep an eye out for wrapped candy combinations. Think of them as an asset for observation!

Break the (risky) mystery candy.

The 200 and 300 levels in Candy Crush Saga are ripe with a new kind of candy--the mystery candy! These question marks can bear good things and bad. They're colored like normal candy crush pieces and can be cleared but when cleared, they give you a random item--it could be a multi-layered meringue , a licorice swirl or chocolate , it could also be a jelly fish or color bomb ! Take the risk, though, it's worth it in this level, especially if you get a wrapped candy .

Candy Crush Level 245 Video

Candy Crush Level 245 is a Candy Order level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to collect all orders (5 striped + wrapped combinations), get 60,000 points in 50 moves. In order to complete a Candy Order level, you will need to crush a certain number of specific candy colors or types. Some early Candy Crush order levels just ask you to collect colored candies. Others will require you to get types of special candies later in the game. You'll have to approach Candy Crush order levels very differently from other stages of the game! Use these all-purpose tips for Candy Crush order levels to dominate them and score truckloads of points.

Candy Crush Order Levels Tips

  • If you need to collect special candies, focus on forming them right away. Don't bother making any special candies that don't fill your orders. If you need to make wrapped bombs, don't waste turns by making striped candies.
  • Making special candy combinations can be incredibly hard. Try to make special candies next to one another so you don't have to move them together. Plan your moves ahead so you don't accidentally set one off before making the combo.
  • Be careful when using special candies to fill colored candy orders. It sounds like a good idea to use a color bomb to get lots of candies you need. But this will make it harder to collect more of those candies if your order is still not filled.
  • Use color bombs on candies you don't need to get rid of them. Then you will have more opportunities to make big combos with candies you do need, since they'll take up more room on the board.

Bonus Tip: Order Collection

AI

Don't just match randomly - look for where your target candies cluster. Color bombs are incredibly valuable for finishing orders quickly.

I spent $$ on this level. Including $3.99 for 15 extra moves and still only got 4 combos. Done with this. I hated to send the money, but I figured to clear this level and move on to a Strategy Level, it's worth it. This is a snake level, mainly based on chance not so much strategy. I think it's aimed to get lots $$ from you, I spent $10.95 on it. I deleted Candy Crush from my iPad. Good Bye, Good riddance. Ciao, etc. :o)

I feel the same way. What used to be fun has turned into a $$ game that I will not participate in. Deleting this game from all my computers, phones, etc. And for the person that passed with 3 stars, good for you, aren't you special.... don't believe it for a minute!

Having NO results on level 245 ... Ugh! Love this game ... will give it another attempt or two ... but, will not waste anymore money or time on one stupid level. Gimme a break.
RushRobot's avatar
Nobody to regulate the game and make sure you are not getting cheated out of your hard earned money.
Charles's avatar
In favor of more government regulation? You must be a Democrat.

Why do you guys bother spending your money i have only just reached this level but i have not spent any cash getting here and never will for me that's the best buzz.
Candy Crush Cheats's avatar
Congrats Teresa. That's quite the accomplishment!
Barbara Moore's avatar
I agree. I have gotten to 245 and hav'nt spent any money. This is a hard level, but they only get harder so am in no hurry !
Sam's avatar
I also refuse to spend money on this game or any game. I know I will get pass this at some point.
Geertje's avatar
Never ever spend money on that which gives you nothing back! Go Teresa!! I never spend money on games either.
Kim bennett's avatar
Bet you are still " buzzing!"
Zoie's avatar
I did break the level 245 twice now but still i cant access the next level and it keep saying that there will be more land to explore and says that i can still replay the previous stage.Can somebody help me about this?
Candy Crush Cheats's avatar
Have you tried installing an update?
Patsy Dodge's avatar
I have been on this level for over 4 months and I quit. I have never had that many wrapped candies to complete the level. Very frustrating!
Candy Crush Cheats's avatar
Don't give up just yet Patsy! What troubles are you having?
Irena Mayhew's avatar
VERY FRUSTRATING!!!!! :P
CC Addict's avatar
I beat Level 245 in 2 days and used no money! don't give up!! You need to make a wrapped candy and striped combo off the bat it usually clears a path for more wrapped ones to fall down... Also try to collect coloured bombs and free prize lollipops to clear a path to the mate. Take a chance on the mystery candies - many times they have a wrapped in them. Also a bit of luck with a good board is needed but when I won and came in second - I had to strategize & make my first combination! Good Luck!!!
Sandy's avatar
I followed that advice too and it worked. It's only random if you don't plan your moves carefully. People give up too easily.
Geertje's avatar
We KNOW what we have to make but....the bombs keep turning up and keep us from even thinking about the combos.
MysticStranger .'s avatar
Most of these tips are useless! "Make a wrapped candy," everyone keeps saying. Well what about when you make one and then go to put it beside a stripe and it crushes because of some stupid method you can't understand? I wish I had some of these crush and wipe methods on other levels that need them. Here you make a wrapped candy and it crushes before you even get near a stripe! I'm about to delete this silly crap also. A game should contain a largely workable strategy. This game is too much chance. I could go to the casino for that crap!
bill neal's avatar
Spent almost a year on this level .... No more for me .... I am not paying for advancement ....
Geertje's avatar
Yes, I've had many of those too. And you have striped and wrapped but cannot get them together and of course, you need to spend moves on stupid bombs!
Marc Casedonte's avatar
I have been on this level for sometime. Waste of time. You make wrapped then they are surrounded by the same color so you cant move in any direction without crushing it. Or a mystery candy comes up wrapped right before you crush it with a striped. Waste of time. Just deleted it goodbye.
Geertje's avatar
Amen, I found the same!
Sandra Gilbert's avatar
Is anyone else having trouble after completing this level moving on to the next. It won't let me ask friends for the boost to the next level.....it just blinks off every time.
Sandy's avatar
I passed the level and it only took 4 tries. I followed the advice of making the wrapped candies first. No need to pay money for bonuses or even use bonuses. Wrapped candies aren't that hard to make if you look at the board carefully and plan your moves. It's not as random as some people think. Patience people patience!
Glenda Metcalfe Hill's avatar
How do you plan wrapped candies?
Eddie Andrews's avatar
How do you make a wrapped candy.............. I have no idea how to do this ??????????????
ghirl59's avatar
You can make wrapped candies but as soon as you combine one with a stripe it wipes the rest of them out!
rose webster's avatar
had twelve goes it this,,,, came here for tips,,,saw the make wrappad candy first tip,,,did it first go and didnt make first wrapped candy until move 26,,,,after that each combo seemd to make a wrapped candy and had luck moving stripped next to it,,,on 4th combo and only three moves left the combo created a wrapped and stripped right next to each other,,,
edthsdgh's avatar
Kek you people suck.
guest's avatar
So glad I looked this up!!! Using the strategy of looking for or forming the wrapped candies 1st help me get through this in 1 game!!! Thanks for the tip. It may have been a by chance of luck that my last board help me to get through. My whole strategy. Was wrong thank you all. I've only been on the board for abt 3 days. Unlike others. Dnt quit try looking at the boards differently now. Form multiple wrapped ones first the maneuver the strip ones to get to the wrapped ones . Took all of 3 mins for me to get through that level. Again thanks!!!
Vinny's avatar
bull crap. Not possible. I had 5 wrapped at once on the board and all got popped when I combined one with a striped.
Mary's avatar
I give up on CC. This level is impossible!! Only get one or 2 wrapped and they crash before you get another stripped! I'm done for good!!
Sam's avatar
I only needed two more combos with 22 moves. Then the bombs and chocolates came onto the board. Ugh.
Jean's avatar
I have been down to one combo many times and had lots of moves and still didn't get it. I will delete it this evening and use my time to do something more useful. I know when I am beaten
Vinny's avatar
Too damn hard. If it didn't have bombs it would be easier but that takes up a lot of your moves. There are times you can't even get wrapped no matter how hard you try.
Sam's avatar
I did it. I decided I needed to take my time instead of trying to rush. I even had about ten moves left and I got three stars. :)
Tiffany's avatar
I'm OVER THIS! I am quitting Candy Crush now. I'm fed up with this level! If the Candy Crush people would make this level more reasonable, people wouldn't leave.
suspends's avatar
I finished this level on second try and had 11 moves left, was luck or not, i dunno :)
Suemoo's avatar
245 is hard, which is why I came on here yesterday. Yes you do need to get wrapped candy first as they are harder to get, but you can only get them through a combination of thinking about it, and the game actually giving you the opportunity to do it! Keep trying, you will get there in the end. It's taken me a couple of days, but tried five times this morning then i did it. Yay :o)
Elisabeth Lahav's avatar
I am at level 245 and can see I am going to be stuck here, mainly because this level apart from making a wrapped candy which either gets blown up, a bomb explodes game over little chance to get a striped next to it and then go through frustration for 5 successes. This level has no strategy and is based on pure luck which one can wait for weeks to happen. In an earlier episodes there was a similar objective to hit a number of wrapped candies and suddenly the game's object was changed. I hope King decides to do the same with this level because I am not going to pay and frustration is not my game and I will say goodbye as I am sure many players have done so already
Gra's avatar
This level is me out too. Spent FAR too long on it without ever getting close. I've tried everything I can think of, and those of us who have come this far do know how to play the game! Too random, too difficult, infuriating and ultimately frustrating. Might need a rethink from the developers because you know what? Life's too short!
Hicham El Youssoufi's avatar
finally after 3 weeks i succed in level 245 youppppppppppiiiiiiiiiii
Optimator's avatar
This level is way too difficult, and I'm not playing CC anymore because of this. I've already completed the level on Facebook, but it wont sync on my other devices. Bye bye from a paying customer... And yes, I've tried uninstalling, updating and so on.
JoAnne's avatar
I was a Candy Crush fanatic until I got to level 245 and now I'm turned off of this game and I an very disgusted with this level. I expect challenges but this is ridiculous . I refuse to pay any money because it won't help, on any other regular level it's impossible to get 5 wrapped/striped candies now they want it all on one level...very disgusted with this level and I am going to delete.
jonathan's avatar
um candy crush I would like to ask you a question what happens if you get jackpot and you don't get your stuff that you won then what
Sandra's avatar
My only question is what's the point of the bombs?? MOST of your usable moves are spent defusing those bombs! I'm seriously about to uninstall this game and go elsewhere! This game blows!
Geertje's avatar
I fully agree with you. The bombs are ridiculous as you get no chance to make combos.
AnthonyHeather Kofalt's avatar
I think when u make a move and the stripped and wrapped Candy's mix(ones of the same color) that should count but they don't
iain's avatar
"concentrate on making wrapped candies"...pointless statement...if they are not there to be made how can you make them?...then when you do manage it they are crushed before you can use them!....level is unreasonably difficult imo...seriously losing patience now.
feckyourself's avatar
Just did this with 24 moves left, no boosters. Obviously luck was involved. Stop whinging about it being a money grab. I'm at 246 without spending a single penny/cent on this game. Some of the levels are easier playing on a PC through Facebook than on mobile version.
Prild's avatar
Watching this video, it's seems to be too good to be true. For some reason the best opportunities to make the combos are happening in the first moves on here already, something which has never happened in more than four weeks of trying the level myself. Five times I got a wrapped candy in the first move already and then things went downhill. Bombs that just couldn't be removed because there was no other color just near to it in all 12 moves... or the wrapped candy exploded because the same colored candys fell down from above, something which nobody could ever foresee... or it was impossible to get an striped candy near the wrapped one. The moment that you get a wrapped one in the first few moves of a round you can bet your arm that the next steps are getting even harder and that you'll never ever come even close to hit more than 2 combos at maximum. I've tried every strategy and nothing works. The mystery candies are almost always chocolates for me, or stupid other blocking things I can't use. Whenever you come close to hit the last 2 combos you'll get bombs in areas where there is no chance to get either striped candies or same colored candies close enough, no matter what you do. Coincidence? This level has nothing to do with thinking it through or strategy, it's programmed and predetermined whether or not you pass it. Only luck, no riddle. I will stop playing this game.
Geertje's avatar
Level 245 is evil! I spend so much time on keeping the stupid bombs away that there no chance to get the 5 combos. Which is in itself not easy. Just as you delete one bomb near the top the other already pops through. No fun at all!
Julie's avatar
Ive been saying for ages I'm stopping, just done 5 goes and it is almost impossible and soooo boring, going to delete Candy Crush, i like a challenge, but this is pointless.
Geertje's avatar
And....I will never ever spend money on these kind of games. I rather give some to a charity to feed some hungry people.
Julie's avatar
I cant make wrapped candies, so this will certainly stop me playing, it should also be fun, this isnt.
Julie's avatar
Ive just made 3 packets and they all went before i could match them, giving it till the morning then deleting, as people say this level is pointless.
Kim bennett's avatar
DO NOT spend a dime for this level! Prepare to be stuck for a long time. Makes no sense. NO ACTION!! NO CHALLENGE. THE WORST WASTE OF TIME. I am going to playpoker.
Kim bennett's avatar
Don't bother. Find another game. Don't spend a dime. Don't be a sucker AGAIN.
Kim bennett's avatar
Don't bother with this game any longer. Find ANOTHER game.
Kim bennett's avatar
There is no discussion. FIND ANOTHER GAME!
Julie's avatar
Thats it, no more Candy Crush for me, 245 is totally pointless.
Geertje's avatar
Tried is again but as soon as I got rid of 1 bomb 2 more appeared. I will just use 5 lives and after that I'll do more useful things.
Michael McGinnin's avatar
Okay just my second day playing level 245, and here are a few of my tips/observations. Most of the time if you combine a color bomb with a striped or another color bomb, it will produce 1-3 wrapped candies! This is just like getting a mystery candy which is wrapped. Also I've noticed it is very difficult to locate/position a striped candy piece, once you've found a wrapped piece. Instead of wasting precious moves on this, start immediately forming other striped candies elsewhere on the board, and another wrapped candy will suddenly appear. BTW, to anyone that continues to gripe about the difficulty/futility of these levels, get over it, learn from your mistakes and try new strategies. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, hoping for a different result. I have spent as long as 3 weeks on just a couple of levels, but this week alone I went from level 201 to 245. Patience, persistence and willingness to try new methods is the key to quickly get to level 600. Paying for anything on this or any other game, even $1, is pure insanity!!!
Julie's avatar
Can someone explain please, if you make more than more 1 wrapped candy and get it next to a stripe, the 1st one you explode takes all the others out, i hate this level.
Nicole Swegel's avatar
This game is about luck....bad luck! I have been on Level 245 for a while now. I have tried endlessly to beat it but can't and I will not spend money on a game. As for the cheats on this website, it was useless. There is nothing on these cheats that we don't already know. Not even sure why it is called cheats. I'm about to give up Candy Crush because of this level. Each day I play less and less....some days I don't play at all anymore. I think it is time to find a new free game to play.
Nikki Greenwell's avatar
I hate this level. Im refuse to spend another dime on CC. I understand its trivial but damn u get all the way there but u need to buy extra moves that is BS! Stop cheating us out of our money and fun for playing the game !
rookgaroo's avatar
It took some time, but I finished this level in less tries than level 244. Just work on setting up wrapped candies and hope you get lucky with the bombs, because that's your only hope. It sucks when you have to use a ton of moves just to explode a bomb. This is one of those levels that is meant to break you down and buy stuff, but that just makes me more determined not to buy anything. I've had my butt saved by items I've won on the free wheel, but I'll be damned if I'll pay to play a game that's advertised as free.
Julie's avatar
Been on it about a month or so and its got me beaten, sad cos i loved CC, if only they would make it easier, ive got this far, so i know what im doing, if you only had to make 3 matches it would really help.
Denis Raikkonen's avatar
I got through this level on my 1st trial and I had 11 moves left in the end )). It was not about luck. Please, do not waste your moves and always look for wrapped candies
