Android Version has Sweet Name Why ?

Since these devices make our lives so sweet, each Android version is named after a dessert.

Android versions have been developed under a confectionery-themed code name and released in alphabetical order

The most recent major Android update is Android 6.0 “Marshmallow”, which was released in October 2015.

These are the android versions :

Cupcake (1.5)
Donut (1.6)
Eclair (2.0�2.1)
Froyo (2.2–2.2.3)
Gingerbread (2.3–2.3.7)
Honeycomb (3.0–3.2.6)[a]
Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0–4.0.4)
Jelly Bean (4.1–4.3.1)
KitKat (4.4–4.4.4, 4.4W–4.4W.2)
Lollipop (5.0–5.1.1)
Marshmallow (6.0)

Android Marshmallow is the latest version, which means we get to guess the name of the next update. Since Android updates are alphabetical, any bets the next version will involve a partnership with Nutella?
