Vegemite for Australia
Sticky Rice for Siam or Balut (can be Khmer)
If the Huns came back they could give severed heads:shifty:
 
I think Venetian delegation can bring you carnival masks, and maybe Zulu can offer you cattle?
 
Huns: boot clasps, whips, bows, saddle decorations. See Attila the Hun by John Man, p. 329 (Google books). These are Hunnic treasures though. Hunnic delegations may or may not have provided gifts (likely not, it was usually the other way around). Some Hunnic delegates were Roman though (like Orestes, a Roman landowner who was sent as part of a Hunnic delegation to Constantinople in 449 AD), so maybe Attila can mention he's sending a delegation that includes a member of "[your] civilization" who "lost his way" and now serves Attila as a delegate. "Please treat my delegation with kindness (and riches), or I will be back with nocked arrows." Or some such.

Mongols could give you horse blood. They fed on it during their war campaigns. Or maybe a sable skin (I read somewhere this was a bridal gift, but nonetheless).
 
Brigadeiro could be a gift, it's a popular Brazilian sweet made of chocolate, it's so delicious that I'm not satisfied with just one :D.

Acarajé is a famous Afro-Brazilian culinary dish, although I still prefer Feijoada.

There are also many Brazilian dishes of indigenous origin, such as Maniçoba, Pato no Tucupi and Tacacá, and many others. Although they are popular in the northern region and I have particularly never tasted any of them.
 
Balut is Filipino food.
Woops. Just learned something. If Polynesia comes back with Kamehameha they could give some poke with a lei.
 
Time for more food! The Ottoman Empire can send you baklava. Austria can offer you strudel. And you can add svíčková for Bohemia/Czechs.
 
America : Virginia country ham, BBQ, Bourbon, pecan pie
England: Porter, Triffle, Breakfast or Earl Grey tea
Czech: Should be Pilsner instead of the generic beer.
Germany: Hefeweizen, Dortmunder, Black Forest Cake(schwarzwälder kirschtorte), Kirschwasser
France: Cognac, Champagne, Chartreuse, Brie

If Switzerland was added in-game, maybe it could offer you some chocolate?

Talking about chocolate - didn't Spanish learn about chocolate from the Aztecs? Maybe cocoa/chocolate could be a good present from Aztec delegation (if they don't already offer it to you. What's Aztec present anyways?)

Maybe it could be good to write delegation gifts that are in the actual game somewhere.

I believe they already do bring gifts of chocolate and maize. There is a list of delegation gifts somewhere in the forums, but I'm not sure where.

Found it. Here is @Guandao's list of in-game delegation gifts.

It seems that my proposal for Aztecs bringing you chocolate doesn't matter now. Although... Can we say cocoa =/= chocolate? Cocoa beans are raw material and chocolate is the product.

Thinking about sweets other than cocoa beans for Aztecs, Czech delegation can bring koláč (or kolach in English).
