Sweets are a good source of vitamins

False – Sweets contain high amounts of sugar and are not a good source of vitamins and minerals. Eating sweets regularly between meals will lead to tooth decay. For snacks that are rich in vitamins and minerals, eat a variety of fruit (fresh or dried) instead.

this is one of those nutrition myths that just will not die. Tell all your friends.
