It will not harm the baby. Sugar intake by mother does not directly affect breast milk sugar.
Next Steps
Breastfeeding can be continued.

No ...breastmilk contains certain amount of lactose and so eating sugary substance has no direct effect on the baby.

Don't worry. These won't affect your baby. But it will affect your health if you take these sugar rich products frequently. It's better to consume fruits.
Next Steps
Continue breastfeeding.
