The arms, or a Dolphin haurient azur, do not appear to match any branch of the Delfini family. It is possible that they are erroneous, or that they are representative of the surname of recipient of this dish. The letters on the escutcheon are presumably the recipient's initials, and it is possible that they could stand for Iohannes Antonius Delphinus (Giovanni Antonio Delfini, 1506-1561), a prominent Counter-Reformation scholar and churchman, whose career took him to a various regions of Italy including Bologna, Brescia and Venice.
