I checked in my system (guix system 3f17158, kernel 5.18.12), and saw the same: 
No font appears selected in GNOME Tweaks. That seems like a bug to me.

As a workaround, I did the following:

1. guix install font-abattis-cantarell
2. fc-cache -rv (see 
https://guix.gnu.org/en/manual/devel/en/html_node/Application-Setup.html#X11-Fonts)

Then, launch GNOME Tweaks again and cantarell should be selected.
