Keep the Ingredients in the Middle.

Because this is an ingredient level, you need to be aware of where they can successfully exit the board and be collected. There are only 3 exit points in this level and there are smack dab in the middle of the board. The good news in this level is that there are conveyor belts going right to left. Usually, conveyor belts are troublesome, but in this level, they are very beneficial. You can use them to position your ingredients in the middle of the board so they are correctly place for extraction.

Plan Your Moves Carefully.

The conveyor belts can be very helpful, if you plan ahead correctly. There are three conveyor belts on top of one another in the middle of the board so ingredients can get stuck there. You need to keep the ingredients on the conveyor belts until they are in one of the three columns with extraction points. You need to set up your moves to make timely matches to bring the ingredients down when they are in the right position.

Use Special Candies.

As in every ingredients level, striped vertical candies are very effective. If you have an ingredient in one of the three middle columns along with a vertical candy in that column, you can activate it and collect the ingredient immediately. You can also us the conveyor belts to position vertical striped candies in the correct columns as well. Combining a wrapped candy with a striped candy is also a good tactic because it expands the width of the vertical column clearing.

Candy Crush Level 551 Video

Level 551 is an ingredients level, one of five level types in Candy Crush Saga. Your objective is to bring down 2 nuts and 3 cherries in 40 moves and get 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.
