Backing up .dmgs and .toast files

I'm pretty new to Mac, so I'm still pretty confused.
I have a bunch of utilities and apps (as .dmg files) that i'd like to back up. How do i make a DVD or CD that holds more than one .dmg file? When I try to copy a disc image file using Toast (Titanium 7) it seems to only allow one .dmg per disc. Do i just copy them as Data?
Also, some of the files are .toast. Can these be put on the same disc as the .dmgs?
Thank you everyone

You copy them as Data. You can also make a folder on the Hard Drive as a Burn Folder and copy it all there and click burn if you are running Tiger.

Since you are already using Toast, just click the DATA tab and drag all of the files into Toast and then click burn.
