"Piece of Cake" is the third studio album by the grunge band Mudhoney. Recorded and released in 1992, it was their first album released through Reprise Records. It features several songs, such as "Suck You Dry," "Blinding Sun," and "Acetone," that are consistently featured in Mudhoney's live setlist.

Although released at the peak of grunge, a genre Mudhoney had helped create, the band and "Piece of Cake" did not get any special treatment commercial or critical wise.

Reprise reissued this album with bonus tracks in 2003.
