Michigan-related gifts for a family in Germany?

I'm going to Germany for three weeks with a B2B program at my school, and we are supposed to give our host families a gift basket of things that relate to America, but mostly Michigan. I have a few things that are simple, like brownie mix (because they don't have brownies in Germany; terrible, right?), a "Beans Jackrabbit" ornament (if you know anything about that), and some nice chocolate (because apparently they like American chocolate), but I'm in need of some other things. What small items (food or otherwise) just scream "Michigan" to you? What other gifts might be appropriate? And please, no sarcastic responses like "a failing economy", etc. Very funny. Not so helpful :) Thanks for the help!

Mackinac Island Fudge (can be found at lots of gift shops, not just on the island) Vernors..not sure how you'd travel with it tho Winschuler's cheese..same as above tho There is a great MICHIGAN themed gift shop in Great Lakes Crossing, try that. Can't go wrong there.
