Boosters can give you the extra help you need to beat tricky levels! Here’s a breakdown of what each booster does and how to make the most of them:
🔹 Basic Boosters
Striped Candy
Create by matching four candies in a row or column. When activated, it clears a full row or column depending on its direction.
Wrapped Candy
Make this by matching five candies in an L or T shape. It explodes twice, clearing nearby candies and blockers.
Lollipop Hammer
Tap to smash any candy or blocker without using a move, perfect for that last stubborn piece!
Color Bomb
Match five candies in a row to create this powerful booster. Swap it with a regular candy to remove all candies of that color, or combine it with another special candy for an even bigger effect.
Coloring Candy
A game-changer! Swap it with any candy, and all candies of that color transform into the Coloring Candy’s color, creating a massive board-clearing effect.
Jelly Fish
Adds fish that target blockers when activated. Matching two fish of different colors creates multiple fish, making it great for reaching hidden bears or jelly.
Free Switch
Swap two non-matching candies without using a move. Useful for setting up powerful matches!
⚡ Advanced Boosters
Cross Lollipop Hammer
When used, it removes a candy or blocker and then sends a blast both horizontally and vertically.
Supersonic Lolly
When fully charged, this booster wipes out all layers of blockers on the board. You can collect five pieces to complete it through Team events.
Shuffle Bag
Mix up all candies on the board for a fresh layout, great for breaking tricky setups!
Mega Color Bomb
Win 10 levels to activate this supercharged Color Bomb. While active, all Color Bombs turn into Mega Color Bombs.
- Clears two colors from the board instead of one.
- When combined with a special candy, it creates more specials from two colors.
- Stays active until you fail a level, then you’ll need to win 10 levels again to regain it.
🔥 Booster Combinations
Want to supercharge your game? Try combining boosters:
- Wrapped + Striped Candy → Clears a large area in a double explosion.
- Color Bomb + Coloring Candy → Removes multiple colors, massively reshuffling the board!
- Color Bomb + Striped or Wrapped Candy → Converts all matching candies into that booster for big effects.
- Color Bomb or Coloring Candy + Swedish Fish → Doubles the number of fish for extra blocker-clearing power.
Use your boosters wisely… 👀🎯

🛑 Blockers make levels trickier by obstructing matches and spreading across the board. Here’s how to deal with them:
🟫 Chocolate (Brown & White)
- Spreads every move unless cleared.
- Brown Chocolate has one layer, while White Chocolate has two layers.
- Match next to it or use special candies to remove it.
🧇 Pancakes & Cupcakes
- Regular Pancakes as seen above need one hit to remove.
- Multi-layered Pancakes and Cupcakes need multiple hits to clear.
🍯 Honey
- Can trap candies inside.
- Match next to it or use special candies to break through the layers.
- The stronger the honey looks the more layers it has!
🧊 Ice
- Hides candies, bears, or blockers underneath.
- Break by matching adjacent candies or using special candies.
🍩 Jelly Cake
- Needs 8 hits to clear.
- Once destroyed, it explodes and removes all candies and blockers on the board.
- Acts as both a blocker and a booster—breaking it can turn the tide of a level!
⚫ Liquorice Swirl & Lock
- Liquorice Swirls block matches and can move after being hit once.
- There may also be stronger Liqorice Buttons that has several layers!
- Liquorice Locks trap candies and need a direct match or special candy to remove.
💗 Bubble Gum
- Sticks to candies and spreads every turn if not removed.
- Match candies with gum on them to "chew" it away.
🍓 Jam
- Not a blocker! But in Jam Levels, you need to spread Jam by making matches with candies on Jam-covered tiles.
Some blockers need multiple hits, while others spread every turn, so plan your moves carefully!
