Shoppers are getting very excited over a chocolate gift set from M&S. The Santa's Magical Light Up Chocolate Workshop was a sell-out last Christmas and this year's is expected to follow suit.

When you lift the lid you'll find 20 adorable gonk and gingerbread characters, made from milk, dark, white, and blond chocolate.

You can then watch as the moon through the window at the back of the box lights up, accompanied by the sound of jingling sleigh bells.

Fans of the gift have already taken to social media to rave about the product, with one shopper saying 'I'm obsessed with this, it's so cute" and another adding: "This is one of the most adorable Christmas gifts I've seen."

The set, costing £15, is available in stores now along with the rest of the M&S Christmas food range, including the Starry Night Shortbread Selection Projection Tin, £9, which has also been causing a stir.

Filled with all butter and chocolate chip shortbread and playing Deck the Halls music, the light-up tin with a rotating starry night projector is set to be another gift of the season.

Among the other highlights at M&S this year is the Percy Pig range, including the £5 chocolate calendar which featured in our round-up of kids' advent calendars here.
