Real question: if these products are illegal, how are they authorized in the Single market in the first place?

What kind of illegal products? Asking for a friend. /s

"The ‘illegal’ products shoppers might find include baby toys and small electronics." so using bad quality, toxic and or harmful ingredients, meeeeh. /s x2

Jokes aside, that's why EU market is so demanding, and up for quality and safety.
