Chocolate rum, apparently, is what went into the cake the Microsoft development team sent to the Mozilla development team upon the release of Firefox 2.0.
Needless to say, the Mozilla team was surprised, but thankful. And they're getting pounded with traffic about it!
There are plenty of people theorizing that this whole thing is a hoax. There are plenty more who have concocted some pretty crazy conspiracies behind it, some as simple as the cake being poisoned, others as complex as the icing pattern containing a message that require decryption to read.
However, Tony Chor, the Group Program Manager for the IE development team confirmed it was nothing more than one team saying "nice work" to another team for a job well done. Given the complexities of the war being waged on the browser battlefield, the simpleness of the answer to the cake mystery is most welcome. :-)
