Hello,
Eating sugary or sweet foods can cause a temporary sweet aftertaste in the mouth. However, a persistent sweet taste in the mouth can be a sign of a more serious condition.
A sweet taste in the mouth can be a signal of the body having trouble regulating blood sugar, which may be due to diabetes.
Therefore I suggest consulting a doctor for physical examination, diagnosis and treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
