"That takes the cake" is an expression meaning something along the lines of, that's superlative, and has nothing to do with cake.
Edit: "That's a piece of cake" means it's easy, and also has nothing to do with cake.

Takes the cake= the best(the cake is the prize)
Piece of cake= easy (easy as eating a piece of cake)

"its a piece of cake" = its easy to do ("adding 1 with 1, is a piece of cake!") (also: "easy as pie")
"that takes the biscuit" = ex: "just when I thought I'd done painting the outside of the house, a bl**dy bird pooed on it. That really takes the biscuit!"

If this is what you mean........"That takes the cake" means something is just unbelievable and "That's a piece of cake" means that's easy.
