Okay on a serious note, you can try killing as much mobs as possible to get gumdrops or fruits to craft gumdrops, killing bosses such as king beetle and tunnel bear help as well.
Using the candy planter drops additional gumdrops as well, potentially use magic beans for sprouts for fruits to then craft gumdrops. Once you get to 1000 gumdrops you COULD use 500 tickets to buy the rest of the gumdrops from the gumdrop shop as if it were a regular event bee from the ticket tent.
