The phrase means that someone is just a bit on the heavy side and should say no to the offer of cake or, otherwise meaning that that person should refrain from accepting more fatty foods.
When someone says, "I'll pass on the chocolate cake." it means they're not going to have any. The reason could be anything, such as they've already had plenty to eat, they've got an upset stomach, they know that there's not much cake and they're being generous to let everyone else have it, they don't really like the way you make chocolate cake. The term "to pass" on something has nothing to do with fatty foods, it goes back far before such things as calorie counting became fashionable, it's a term borrowed from Poker.
