I am positive that Icecake is an error and is actually Icelake; the former sounds like something Google would use. The initial 10nm family, Cannonlake, is expected in 2017.
The third generation would be called Tigerlake and thus is indicative of a second tock in the tick-tick model. This year we will see Kaby lake based on 14nm, this is also an extra tock in the sequence. The tock basically means that Intel is not using a new production node with a smaller fabbed architecture yet sticks to the fabrication process.
