Tips & Strategies

Written by our expert Candy Crush players

Match the coconut wheels horizontally to bring ingredients down faster.

The coconut wheels will rollover a whole row or column depending on which direction you matched it, turning a number of candies into striped candies. Match the coconut wheel horizontally to get a bunch of vertical striped candies to go off and eliminate an ingredient's whole column. This will make an ingredient shoot to the bottom.

Work from the side that is more free from chocolate.

With the chocolate fountains in the middle, either one or both sides can fill up with chocolate. However, if you notice that one side is filling up with more chocolate than another, make matches on the opposite side. Ingredients drop from both sides of the board, so it doesn't matter which side you play from.

Use your color bombs wisely.

At the start of the level you are given a few color bomb s for free. Don't just match them to clear candies. Instead, wait until you can make a special candy combo. Match a color bomb with striped candies or another color bomb for maximum clearing power.

Candy Crush Level 406 Video

Level 406 is an ingredients level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to bring down 2 hazelnuts and 4 cherries and score at least 60,000 points. 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

Strange, when I try to crack a jelly that has no color in it it will not do it. I have wasted two lollypops that way and would have finished a level sooner. Does anybody know why a jelly without a color cannot be smashed?

I think they've messed with this one because even after I drop an ingredient no new ones are coming out the next time...
