It's from the tradition of giving cakes as prizes. People would walk around a cake, and the most graceful would win the cake as a prize. 'Cake walk' and 'a piece of cake' both mean a job or contest that's very easy to achieve or win.

Not sure where it came from....but learning to ride a bike is a piece of cake...because it's easy.
Paris Hilton is a piece of work - because she's a mess.

I like to say, "It's a peice of de cake." in a Mario (from the Mario Brothers game) voice. I think he says that sometimes in the game.
Anyway, yes... Paris Hilton is a peice of cake. You can have your cake and eat it too.

I suppose 'piece of cake' is better than 'a fresh dog turd'
