While this level may seem really hard at first, the presence of only four colors makes it a lot easier, despite the icing taking up all but four spaces. At the start of this level, you will ALWAYS be able to make a match to start.
Ingredients fall every five moves, but there is a catch: Only one ingredient can be on the board at a time.
As stated in the first point, four colors makes it easy to create special candies and trigger cascades. However, this point is less applicable in the early stages of the level, as there is minimal space to begin with.
Strategy[]
Work your way outward to remove some of the initial icing, and when the first cherry drops, focus on clearing a path for it to reach the bottom. Then, do this for each ingredient that appears, aiming to clear as much of the icing as possible in the process.
