The nearest to toffee flavoured buttercream (icing) would be to use Vahine Caramel (sauce). Bought mine from Lakeland, but I have since seen it in some supermarkets (bakery section). It is pure caramel - wonderful on creme caramel, especially shop bought ones that don't have much on them! Try using a little in your butter and icing sugar, till you have the right flavour, but not too much that it makes it runny!
I have used it when making cookies to get a "toffee" flavour.
Good luck x
