Marmalade, English strength tea bags. I used to bring Jeye cloths/dusters as seldom saw those but can find them now. Oh and tins of English shortbread to try out on your new Italian friends. One of mine who boasts of being an Anglophile was driven to distraction the other afternoon when she tried one for the first time. After a succession of mio dios! and ma-donna! she discretely spat it out. "Cheese biscuits" (as she put it) with afternoon tea, join me in trying to convert the rest of the world to the pleasure!
