I used to deliver milk back in the day and one particular old Doris I used to deliver to used to greet me every visit with 2 mint imperials and ask me if I wanted a toffee.
Must be colloquial.
yeah, I think some people did used to use 'toffee' like the yanks use 'candy' to basically mean any kind of sweets.
I vaguely remember my great grandmother saying it.
