I need to get a chart that shows split by 2 level of categories

Sorry, don't know how to formulate it in words, so I wite it by an example
for instance, that would be sales of sweets - they would be divided
1) by type of sweets (Candies, Chocolate, Ice-cream, others)
2) and by weight 0-100gr, 101-200gr, 201-300gr etc.

so the vertical bars would represent proportional split by one category (by weight in this case)
and each vertical bar is split by propoprtional value of other category (type of sweets in this case)

So in case if one of weight segments has very low sales numbers, it is very narrow, and other that has big sales numbers wide.

I have got this example (so i now it is possible to create this type of chart) and it's type is Area chart, but when I try to create such a chart from Scrach I can't seem to find a way to do this.

Can anyone explain how can I create this type of chart?

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
It doesn't look like a true area chart. To me it looks like a 100% Stacked Column chart, that is set to have gap as 0. To get it, use the 100% Stacked Columns chart and then click on one of the bars and then Format Data Series, using Series Options gap Width set to 0% (No Gap). Hopefully this helps.
