Something is very easy.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Danes are among the best non-native English speakers in the world. This leads to 'Danglish', where English idioms are used even when Danish ones exist. Danish culture values humility. Using 'piece of cake' can sometimes be seen as slightly boastful, so it's often said with a self-deprecating smile. In Copenhagen, youth slang is heavily influenced by American and British media. 'Piece of cake' is a staple in high schools. Many large Danish companies (like LEGO or Novo Nordisk) use English as their official language, making this phrase very common in professional settings.
Drop the 'A'
To sound like a real Dane, don't say 'a piece of cake'. Just say 'Det er piece of cake'. It sounds more like a fixed label.
Watch your audience
If you're talking to your Danish grandmother, use 'pærelet' instead. She'll appreciate your 'proper' Danish.
