Marks and Spencer’s Santa’s Workshop biscuit tin with optical illusion

These tins were sold by Marks and Spencer in the UK for the Christmas 2024 season. The workshop lights up and a music box plays, but the real novelty is that the workshop contains a mirror that makes the workshop look larger than it really is. The space hidden by the mirror is used to store the biscuits which are accessed from the base.
