Spilled Nutella on Macbook Pro 13" 2020 Keys.

I was very hungry yesterday, so I decided to go grab some nutella, and put it on a piece of bread. There was a generous amount of nutella, and when I sat down next to my macbook, I dropped it.


I cleaned most of it off, but some of it got stuck in between the keys. The keys still work, however, the whole left side (where I dropped it), has the keys feeling very soft and they don't go down all the way.


I don't want to go to apple because of their ridiculous prices, so how can I clean this without making my computer a goner. Is my computer a goner?
