Nope...  I just can't access a  Mac with Toast installed at the moment,
so i can't exactly describe the menu items.
Toast provides an option to burn images - this should work.
(select this option from the menu bar and point the chooser to the image
file)
 
If you just drop the image-file into the Toast-window, it should work as
well.

Besides some extraordinary options chosen there is only one error
i could imagine (dunno if this is possible with a current version of
Toast : The image was burned as a track onto a data-cdr, which means
the image file is stored on a cd like on your hd without using
it's information for formatting the cd. This might happen when you
create a new cd and just add the image to the list of files.
 
Can you mount the cd in MacOS 9 and if, how does it appear on the
desktop?
