"Delicious" is ungradable, so can't be qualified with "very".

"absolutely delicious" is fine, or "very tasty".

This may be an American English - British English difference.
"Very delicious" shows up more in COCA than it does in the BNC.
However, COCA is 450 million words and BNC is 100 million words.
