The conditions of air, water, heat/warmth, food and time all contribute to the decay of food. If one or more of these conditions are absent or removed then the food will not spoil.Sugar preserves fruit by drawing the water present in the fruit away from the fruit itself. Therefore, as the water is removed from the fruit the fruit is preserved.
