The cake is not a lie?

Playing through Portal, I like most other people found several of the hidden rooms where Doug Rattman wrote all sorts of things, including that the promised cake is a lie.

I realized that GLaDOS was just using the cake as false motivation. But then I beat the game and watched as the ending credits rolled, and in the very last scene, we see

a cake, surrounded by personality cores and a companion cube!

Does this mean that the cake was not a lie?
