Tips & Strategies

    Break the cakes

    Level 500 contains all blockers that exist in the game, so this is going to be a challenge. First you have to work on breaking the cakes. This will require multiple vertical striped candies and wrapped + striped combos if you can get them. You can try to save the Coconut Wheel until after you have broken the first cake - then use it to break the second. The faster you can break the cakes, the better as you need that precious space to make combos and get your ingredients to the bottom.

    Make striped candies and combos

    The only way to clear the many, many multi-layered meringues on this level are with striped candies and special candy combos. Try not to waste a move on normal matches that don't help you make special candies. Wrapped + striped, color bomb + striped, you will need all of these to get past this board and its blockers. Fortunately, you shouldn't have to worry about the chocolate since these combos should keep it under control. However, do be aware of the bombs as you do not want to get close to clearing all your ingredients only to have a bomb go off.

  • 3

    Keep ingredients in outer 2 columns

    As you can see at the start of this level, ingredients can only be cleared in the two outer columns. When you have ingredients in these columns, do not move them to another column. You will have to move it back later and it may be extremely difficult.

I'm really angry. Have played this level 500 so many times the same thing happens all the time where the last fruit won't come down..... I had the board cleared and had 52 moves left and the 8 th fruit no where in sight,,,,,, that's me finished with candy crush..... I'm wasting no more money or time on this crap. As its no joy any more..... Can't believe this happened

We've been dreading this level after reading all the comments, but my wife just defeated it after two or three tries this morning! No money ever spent getting here, just doing her best creating stripes and wraps/packages. Last fruit came down in good time, with five moves left. A stripe up the row did it with four moves left. Now on to 501!

Hate this level! Get all ingredients down several times except for one or two and it won't drop them down! Is there a trick to this!?

I agree they should let you skip a level or even pay a small fee to move on. :(

HAD TO POST! There are cakes. So you focus on the cakes 1st. Right? Well, I took the advise of one of the other posters and ignored the cakes. Pass it on the 1st try with that strategy. WOW!!!!!!!!!!
Kathindi Helena's avatar
I have been on 500 for exactly a week, challenging level, but never to give up. You can ignore the cakes and work on the sides. I have pass it. Its only when luck is actually on your side. I don't buy any boosters or lives. Just be patient... Good luck folks coming for 500... Cheers... Hoooop hooop!!!

I've just watched the video shoeing how this is cleared and note there are 65 moves whereas when I play I only have 60 moves ! Why ?
Leslie's avatar
This level made me delete the game after months of trying.then I started over from level one. When I got to level 42 it recognized me and made me go back to 500. So I tried it and it actually let me pass. Now on level 542. 500 is ridiculous.

I finally beat this level after trying various strategies, including the one on this site, until I found the one that works. Basically, FORGET ABOUT THE CAKES. Just pretend the board is your normal, break-the-jelly board where you need combos of bombs+stripes or bombs+wrapped. FOCUS ON THE COMBOS AND CLEARING AS MUCH OF THE BOARD AS POSSIBLE. Another tiny tactical tip is to activate the coconut wheel at the right time: while the middle column is full of candies, not licorices, and you have a chance of clearing at least one cake. It's more than luck; I used this strategy and came verrrry close numerous times -- within one or two ingredients -- until I actually did get that board where I was able to form enough combos to clear it.

This happened to me too!!! Had one nut left with more than 20 moves left and it never came out until I had a few moves left. I had only played the level a few times but now it's been a few days & after reading the reviews think I may be playing this level for months :-(

I just passed it using two boosters at the same time: color bomb and coconut wheel, I made it in the second try, I hope it helps...

Cleared the level second day. Got the next to last Cherry with a vertical striped. Took out the last one as well, beacuse it was the next in line in the column :)

completed on third attempt... however it looked doable on first two attempts as well... never looked very difficult... 350 still remain the real nightmare

I read all the comments regarding the difficulty of this level and yes it is. Fortunately, I passed L500 on my first attempt with no boosters or extra moves with 1 star. The key to passing this level is to try to have your ingredients to fall on 1 side. Make as many vertical stripes and wraps as you can. Use a vertical stripe in the row above your ingredient. When you run out of moves in this area, then use a stripe and wrap combo near the ingredient. Not only does this bring your ingredient(s) down it will reset your board. Hope this info helps. Good Luck candy crushing!

I eventually beat 500 tonight after 1 week of trying! Its sooo hard and worst bit was not being able to crush one cake, not the two!! However, keep trying, I found 2 wrapped candies helped! In the end it was 5 extra moves (69p) and a free hand switch thingy that helped! I never pay for extra moves unless I can see them visible on the board. This is my first post on here! Hiya CC fans! :-)
