Kiwi mash for my airstill

Hello again,

I am looking for some guidance in my first ever fermentation attempt.. I chose something unusual - kiwi!

I bought 2 4l jars and placed this in each:

500g of kiwis I mashed in hot water to squizz out the juices, 1kg sugar, one little bag of rum sugar, one little bag of vanilla sugar, and one little bag of cinnamon.
I added water and tried to keep it mild, but on the hot side. I then got some baker's yeast and poured it on top.
I closed the lid and drilled tiny little holes with my knife.

Plac is to let it ferment until the bubbles stop and distill it in my little airstill.

Any advice on what I did wrong, and/or what should I add to the mash?

Thanks!
