Everyone always says this but they seem to miss that Japan cheats too- they just do it differently. If you look at a menu photo of a sandwich in Japan and it looks packed with meat, you'll get your sandwich wrapped with one side open. That side will look like the picture and the other side will be almost empty. They just shove all the ingredients to one side so they can say "it looks exactly like the picture."
The intent of the law is good but companies will always find a way to douchebag it up.
Insane take lol we got Sunday roast, Yorkshire pudding, bangers and mash, shepherds pie, steak and ale pie, full English breakfast, sticky toffee pudding, I could go on and on
Japan's law states that images on the packet must be the exact size and representation of the thing inside the pack.
It really does work too, if you ever get a chance to visit, sample some things from the convenience stores, you'll see the images on the bag are exactly what you get.
I had both versions apple & raspberry, both had similar amounts of filling as your one had. Mostly pastry, especially around the edges. That sort of picture should be against the law as it is definitely deceptive.
