I've managed to complete the first two tiers (2,000 and 2,500 orange candies, respectively) with all pieces of cake intact, but the third tier (2,800 orange candies) remains out of reach. In order to complete the third tier without the Bubblegum Troll eating a piece of the cake, you have to turn on the higher game speed in Settings and breeze through as many levels as possible on your first try while minimizing the number of ads you watch. Unless you find yourself on a level that gives you tons of orange candies and allows you to stall easily, the timing is extremely tight. You will not complete this in one episode, so watching the ads at the end of an Episode/Champions Race might prove to be a liability. If you do watch those ads, then everything else has to be perfect.
This event stops being worth it if you spend lots of boosters or gold bars. Ever since they moved the speed toggle to the Settings menu, I've stopped caring about the second and third tiers of this event. I just let the timer fully run out after I'm done playing new episodes for the day.
By the way, the game speed increases past level 1,000. In the first 1,000 levels, the speed toggle allows you to switch between the first and second speed levels. Once you reach level 1,001, you can only switch between the second and third speed levels, but the speed toggle still shows one or two arrows, respectively. This event is much harder to complete with all pieces of cake intact in the first 1,000 levels, and the third tier of the event is nearly impossible (if not outright impossible in some cases).
After level 1,000, this is how I assess the difficulties - 2,000 orange candies: doable within 45 minutes, still pretty difficult. 2,500 orange candies: very difficult within 45 minutes. 2,800 orange candies: don't bother unless you have wicked skills or are willing to settle for lesser prizes
EDIT: Shortly after I wrote this, I saw that HM100 had slightly nerfed prizes but twice the time limit for the first piece of cake in the 2,000 orange candies tier. I don't know what the later tiers look like, and I don't know if this has rolled out to everyone yet.
EDIT 2: 2,000 orange candies and 2,500 orange candies both give 1 hour and 30 minutes for the best prize, which is slightly nerfed in both tiers. 2,800 orange candies gives only 45 minutes for the best prize. Notably, the prizes weren't nerfed in that tier.
