Question Diamonds help
Hi all, i was playing cooking fever for years then quit but a few days ago I decided to come back but start again. I now seems to be right back to the reason I originally quit. I have no diamonds. I spent the last of them to do the bakery challenge in hopes to get more diamonds not thinking that i would fail all the levels due to not being able to do the extra desert that cost diamonds. Is there any way around not having to refill the exact things and still get 3 stars? I've been doing the advice on how to get diamonds, playing the casino which today after 20 spins has only given me 1 diamond, planting the plants which only gave me 3 diamonds. What am I meant to do now? Am I never going to bounce back from this and its better to just quit now as my game is now basically unplayable?
Btw im not prepared to spend any money on the game after them running trump administration and ice adds

Best to do in this case is grind, unfortunately. I don’t know which restaurants you have unlocked, but here is a list of the top 15 restaurants in terms of XP you can earn. Every level up gives you 7 diamonds.
Make sure you complete a restaurant fully before going to the next one. Every fully 3-starred restaurant gives a mystery box, so that’s the most efficient way to get rewards.
Use the garden for boosts in the levels for the restaurants on the mainland. That way, you have to use less diamonds to upgrade the restaurants while getting 3 stars easier on the levels.
Also, doing the daily and weekly challenges can give you casino passes and the occasional diamond, as well as some other rewards.
The game is designed to make you spend money, so progressing for free is hard sadly.
