Can a hamster have sugar in their diets?

To be more specific, in some diets in certain brand food they include sugar in the ingredients. Does anyone know how this affects hamsters?

I’ve done my google searching, and to my surprise I didn’t find much information. The specific brand is Hutch Klub Food – Hamster & Gerbil- 2 lb. They didn’t specify how much sugar is in the mix.
