The next release of Google's Android OS (4.4) is to be named after the popular chocolate snack from Nestlé, KitKat, this is in a line of many alphabetic sweet names (Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, FroYo (Frozen Yoghurt), Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich & Jellybean) that they have used for android versions since version 1.5, it had originally been planned to name it "Key lime pie" and was even referred to as such even after the deal with Nestlé had been made to keep it a secret.
As part of the deal with the snack maker, the KitKat packaging will feature images of the Android logo aswell as a prizedraw to win an Android device or Google Play apps.
