Candy Crush Saga Level 2179 Cookies tips and video

Hints and tips showing how to pass level 2179 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
Collect 32 licorice and 28 cream blockers in 30 moves to complete level 2179 Candy Crush Saga.
All the cream blockers are on the board but only 16 licorice, but more licorice will drop from the dispensers as you clear it.
The secret of clearing level 2179 is to destroy the cake bombs. Each time you clear a cake bomb it will clear all the licorice, so clearing the two will give you all your orders whether you cleared any before or not.
However, BEWARE, try not to clear both cakes at the same time! Very often if you do this no more licorice will fall after the first cake is detonated so there will be no licorice for the second cake to clear. The licorice may only fall when you make a move after the first cake has detonated.
You may be lucky and get more licorice, but I played many games where no licorice fell after the first cake detonated although the video does actually show the licorice falling straight away this is not the norm.

Took two hammers... one to finish each cake. Pretty easy if you don't mind a little hammering.

Wait a minute. The written part says do NOT clear both cake bombs at the same time or no more licorice will fall after the first cake is detonated so there will be no licorice for the second cake to clear.

However

The video shows both cakes being cleared at the same time, more licorice falling after the first bomb clears and the player completing the level.

What am I missing please

Martha said...

Used 2 hammers (not at the same time) to finish off the cake bombs. Worked well!

Michelle said...

Glitchy level on my iPhone.

I hit a couple of licorice in the course of clearing the cake bombs. They had replenished by the time I cleared the cake bombs, so when I did that my total should have gone down to 14, but it was 16.

Because I cleared both at once, I thought I'd lose the game, but then managed to align 2 of the sprinkle cake ball things. By that point the licorice was fully reset. It was supposed to clear the entire board, including 16 licorice, so the game should have been done. However, when it all settled it said I still had 2 licorice left.

I was so annoyed with the board I ended up using a hand switch to line up a striped to take out the final 2 licorice.

In short the game made me clear 36 instead of 32. It seems they assumed you'd win on 2 different cake bombs and didn't bother to check and make sure the other ways were working right.

As anyone gotten past thus playing androi??
I cannot get the licorice needed
May be time to end my ru....

Michelle said...

I cleared both cakes at the same time.... More licorice fell.. But do you think I can make moves to clear the licorice ?.. No.... beyond aggravated ...

Michelle said...

With a restricted board and mystery eggs, you basically know what you are in for - a Lucky Board level

Anonymous said...

Haven't done it yet but I understand the strategy. If you clear both cakes at once, you never have enough moves to collect the remaining 16 liquorice which only drop after a couple of 'blank' moves after clearing with a cake. So you clear one cake and that gets you 16 liquorice, you wait for the next lot of liquorice to drop and only then do you clear the second cake and thus get all the liquorice you need. So now it's a question of putting it into practice...! HF

two tries on this, paying attention and actually enjoying it, (playing on FB) and it went smoothly. Stripe/wrap combo and a few stripes cleared the cakes at the same time. ample licorice fell after first clearing so that I could get the needed orders.

OMG, worst level EVER!! I honestly don't think it can get any worse !

I've played 55 times and can't even get close. I understand the concept, just not getting an agreeable board that accommodates making combos. Another ucky board level I guess. Unbearable and boring as hell !

"...managed to align 2 of the sprinkle cake ball things. By that point the licorice was fully reset. It was supposed to clear the entire board..."

Unfortunately, that's not how it works. What it does is clear each square, one by one, in a pattern from left to right, top to bottom. As a square is cleared, if an item can fall down into the opened square, it will, so that item doesn't get cleared. This is frequently an issue with licorice.

Will have to wait until i get more hammers posting for luck

First three goes couldn't stop both cakes blowing up at the same time. Next time didn't even get one cake. Fifth time blew one cake then a five count bomb dropped over the remaining cake, which only needed one more hit, so used a hammer.

Video says not to clear cakes at same time but they do just that.

Finding this level harder than many just completed. Frustrating and no fun.

Not liking this level at all. Need a lucky board.

Anonymous said...

Can't believe this level isn't listed as a hard level. I'm struggling with this.

didueverdoubtme said...

Hard part is making sure you only blow one cake at a time. This clears half the licorice order. More licorice will fall but difficult to clear so hope to have enuff moves left to clear remaining cake and more licirice will have conme and will clear with cake blast.

didueverdoubtme said...

You need to concentrate on one cake and yes its difficult

Anonymous said...

Been on this level a long time and waiting for a lucky board.

Anonymous said...

Wondering why I am having so much difficulty with this level. I have 25 moves, not 30.

Anonymous said...

Not sure if possible with 25 moves and not 30. Ready to call this quits. Boring and no fun.

Mark said...

Played about 10 times before finishing with 5 moves spare. No boosters. Essential as far as I can tell that you clear 1 cake then wait for the liquorice to reappear then pop the other. Job done.

Anonymous said...

I pad has only 25 moves not 30. Please correct..

B.K.Arora said...

I cleared both the cakes on my last move. While first cake explosion cleared all licories on board, no licorie fell thereafter to finish the game.

Have one or two hammers ready to hit the cake otherwise you will be on this forever.

Easy. Just follow above tips!

Am totally with you on this. Also I have managed to clear the cake bombs separately but it takes 2 or 3 moves to replenish. It's impossible. Ggrrrr!

If you understand and follow Cookie and others tips, it is easy. I didn't get the cake strategy right away so I lost quite a few times. Then I started out with a color bomb to open things up a bit. Then I kept working on the cakes. Try to remove one cake which with remove all the licorice available. It then takes another few moves for the licorice to regenerate. Then destroy the 2nd cake which will eliminate the rest of the licorice. If you have a few hammers to strategically hit the last piece of cake at the right time, it is easy. if you are still really having a hard time, wait until the helmets are offered and wait to the play this level or any other level you find hard. That was going to,be my next strategy. Starting out with the helmet is such an advantage.

JC said...

This one is kicking my tail. Obviously this is a luck post 🤞🏻

Impossible!

barb W said...

Frustrating level. I've worked on getting rid of some of the licorice first, so that when the pies do blow up, there are less licorice to get, but not having much luck with any strategy. Horizontal stripes keep 'going off' in the wrong places. Lucky board, please!

cherylcandycrush here:

Hard level, takes a few days & most boosters won't help. I tried them a few times but got through without.

There's a trick to getting through all right and it is that you need to clear the 2 cakes BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME.
Easier said than done as on this level, both will usually go together. That will get you 16 licorice but that's not enough.

More licorice WILL fall, but not till 2 moves after the first cake has been cleared. You'll probably only have one or two slices left on the remaining cake. I had one & cleared it but if you can use a hammer on it, that would also clear it & you'd get your final 16 licorices.

Summing up
-clear each cake separately & at least 2 moves apart.
-you may be able to use hammers to wangle this.

Crusher said...

Not easy to clear cakes. Finding this very difficult! Need some LUCK.

Anonymous said...

I am out of boosters now. I really didn't have that many to begin with but really didn't want to use what I had on one level. I am hoping for a lucky board to come my way soon. I really don't see any other way to beat this one without a little help.

It's a shame you have to post for luck just to get a minute chance of passing

Anonymous said...

They said it does that in the video but also stated that's not the norm.

Denise said...

I am so sick of this level, that’s why I quit playing for a while! Need a lucky board bad!!!!!

Getting nowhere fast. Nerd a lucky board please.

Every time I get a chance to complete this level it stops working and takes me back to my home screen.this has happened several times.whats going on king.grrrrrrr

Anonymous said...

And i a done with this game at all! Go on cc What a sad game!

Anonymous said...

So where a hit on the cake wouldn’t normally clear it, it does in this game so both cakes explode together? And King insists games aren’t fixed? Yeah, right.

I managed to leave one cake with more segments left then the other when l detonated a stripe to explode the first one and yep, both went. In any other game a stripe wouldn’t have done that.

Anonymous said...

There is no way l can do the two cakes separately and I’ve tried loads of times. Hating this level. In fact haven’t played for over a week. And don’t feel inclined to play again either ...

Anonymous said...

What does it matter if it's "Marked hard" FFS!

It says super hard on mine and I will get a lucky board soon like I always do.

I will never quit and cry like a child.

Anonymous said...

What a pain this is but I guess it is a super hard level. Can't get just one cake, both always go together. Maybe I'll get a lucky board soon.

Anonymous said...

Just read your comments this is a horrid level liquiose doesn't even come down by the time you do one cake at a time you run out of moves thanks cc you hv done it again changed the move count

Another boring stupid level... I keep playing but it is not as fun as it was before...within 3 months I 've passed only 22 levels and I 've spent about 750 lives!!!! That s not fair....

CTP said...

OMG! I finally got one to clear without the other. Then with one move left I was about to use a stripe to knock out the last piece of the right one...and a cascade ruined it! I’m so mad right now!

CTP said...

What!!!! Now I did it again after several tries, and a cascade ruined it AGAIN except this time I thought I had it in the bag bc I had 4 moves left and was waiting on licorice to come back...the move before it returned, a cascade cleared the last piece 🤦🏼‍♀️

CTP said...

Well when I say cascade I really mean conveyor. Sorry

CTP said...

Ahhhh I finally got a lucky board and passed it! Now I’m going to bed.

I’m waiting for a lucky board. Also need hammer boosters to complete this level.

Good tips. Cleared one cake can’t get close to next one. Frustrating.
