Level 1413 is the thirteenth level in Peppermint Party and the 348th ingredients level. To pass this level, you must release 1 gummi dragon in 30 moves or fewer.
When you complete the level, Sugar Crush is activated and will score you additional points.
Due to very few moves with five colours most likely not creating too many special candies, only one dragon providing a total of only 10,000 points, holes restricting board space, and a surprisingly high three star score, it is considered the hardest level to earn three stars by many people.
All three cake bombs must be cleared to drop the dragon. However, the liquorice swirls dispensed can make it hard to clear the cake bombs from the sides.
The conveyor belt may help or hinder the clearing the cake bombs from the sides.
The dragon is worth 10,000 points.[1] Hence, an additional 10,000 points is required to earn one star.

Earning More Stars[]
Difficulty[]
The presence of five colours makes it easy to create special candies. However, it is not that useful due to the high two and three star target scores.
The dragon is worth 10,000 points. Hence, an additional 440,000 points for two stars and an additional 890,000 points for three stars have to be earned through matching of candies.
The player is required to earn an additional 14,680 points per move[2] for two stars and an additional 29,680 points per move[3] for three stars. Those amount are higher than the maximum amount of points a striped candy during sugar crush can provide which in this case is 6,360 points.[4][5]
The cake bombs reduce available board to create special candies. Clearing them will leave the player low on moves for sugar crush which will also require the player to earn more points from striped candies. With the huge amount of additional points required per move, this is a serious problem.
The liquorice swirls will further reduce the amount of points earned through special candies.
The conveyor belt may help or hinder the creation of special candies.
Trivia[]
This level marks the halfway point in the game for Flash version.
This level is extremely hard to earn 2 stars. Furthermore, it is nearly impossible to earn 3 stars.
As a result, it is impossible to earn Sugar Stars.

Miscellaneous Info
↑1 dragon × 10,000 points per dragon = 10,000 points
↑440,000 points / 30 moves = 14,666.67 points per move
↑890,000 points / 30 moves = 29,666.67 points per move
↑6,000 points per striped candy + 360 points if the striped destroys nine candies
↑The amount of points earned by the striped candies during sugar crush may be higher or lower. If the striped candy causes cascades after detonation, the amount of points is increased. If the striped candy destroys a blocker or less than nine candies which is the greatest number of spaces in this board and does not cause cascades, the amount of points earned will be less than 6,360 points.
