Im making toffee with macadamia and white chocolate for an assignment, but need to present/store it well, i dont want to put it in an air tight container because it needs to look great, any suggestions on how to do that?
Im also making apple turnovers and macadamia short bread, they need to look gourmet too.

the toffee recipe is https://www.hersheys.com/recipes/recipe-details.aspx?id=8284&name=White-Chip-And-Macadamia-Toffee-Crunch
 
Chinese take-out boxes are adorable for candies and cookies. You can get them at a bakery supply store. Put tissue in the box first, then your goodies, and fold the tissue over the top. Looks very high-end. And for the record, I don't think your toffee or shortbread need to be in airtight containers.

Another option...go to your local grocery store with a bakery and ask if you can buy a few of their clear bakery containers for a school project. They usually will just give them to you for free.
 
Store and present the candy in a glass jar with the metal flip-seal lid like this one:

Arrange the turnovers and the shortbread on a plate and cover with plastic wrap. Cover that with foil. Remove both to serve.
