yes cause in 1808 a animal expert saw his cat eat chocolate. he then held an experiment and found out that cats have sweet taste buds. his name was Nick Poltour II. Cats doesn't have the ability to taste anything sweet, since there isn't any nutrient value in anything sweet. They exclusively eat meat. Meat doesn't taste sweet, therefore they don't need the ability. When cats eat ice-cream or cake it's probably for the fat. Though, in rare cases, cats have the ability to taste sweets.

They could, but it is not ideal. If given cooked or processed meat as a treat, it ideally should be plain. Any flavourings included in the meat (if it is processed) could harm the cat. If home cooked, it should not do much harm, but a cat cannot taste sugar, nor does it need any in the way of nutrients.
