De / les

Hi,

I thought we had to use de after negative sentences -

Elle n'aime pas les bonbons - is given as an example

Would it not be: Elle n'aime pas de bonbons?

Unsure why les has been used here

This question relates to:French lesson "Using le, la, l', les before nouns when generalising (definite articles)"
