Eating high sugar items cause lead to inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract or even the pancreas. I would monitor her closely and consider feeding a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice to help her stomach settle. If she seems lethargic, painful, is having vomiting, or diarrhea, she should be seen by a veterinarian.
