"Too [adj] to [verb]" structure


What is the correct grammatical structure for to say "too [adj] to [verb]"?
For example, "this is too sweet to eat" or "It's too bright outside to sleep".
Would it be something like 「甘いすぎるから、食べる事ができない」？But I feel this translates more
to "because it's too sweet, I can't it eat". I'm looking for a more natural
way to say this that would resemble the English "too [adj] to [verb]". Anyone
can help? Thank you so much in advance.




_this is too sweet to eat_

> 甘すぎて、食べられない

_It's too bright outside to sleep_

> 明るすぎて、眠れない

The ~sugite is not always necessary.

> 明るくて、眠れない

I'm using the potential form of the verb here. You can use ことができない to replace
it if you're uncomfortable with it, but the long form sounds stiff to me.
