Android dessert names

 With version 10 Google stopped referring to Android versions using dessert names. Internally these names do still exist however. With version 13 I'm seeing external references to the desserts again.

  1. Quince Tart
  2. Red Velvet Cake
  3. Snow Cone
  4. Tiramisu
  5. Upside Down Cake
  6. Vanilla Ice Cream
  7. Baklava (!?)
