To inhibit yeast growth so a home baker would notice it, you'd have to
use a ton of sugar

There are, however, yeasts that are generally preferred for sweeter,
enriched doughs, such as the fruited one you describe. SAF-Gold is
one I keep around for such breads. It lasts years in the freezer
between uses.

Of you can use sourdough starter if you have it or can borrow some. It
does well with enriched breads, too, such as pannetone.
