    Can you also say אני אוהב סוכריה?

      Sounds unusual. You can either say :"אני אוהב סוכריות" (I love candy(ies)-in general) or "אני אוהב את הסוכריה" (I love the candy-talking about a specific candy).

      Hope it helped :)

      What's the actual difference between "ממתקים" and "סוכריות"? They both seem to translate as candies (American English).

        ll סוכריה is a particular kind of candy. I think it's sugar candy (just learnt this term, but reading a bit in Wikipedia I think this is it).

        Not very common, but might be used to mean "I like eating/receiving a candy"

          Shouldn't it be "I love candies/sweets"?

          Yes. You can report if it failed you on that variation.
