In my experience you would typically find a "cube of cheese" at an informal social gathering/party. But if I had a craving for cheese, I might say, "I want a piece of cheese" or "I want some cheese".

And that cube would be bite-sized. If you're talking about a larger piece of cheese, it would be a brick or a round.
