That cakelab example is die cut, as evidenced by the clean, uncharred lines, and the fact that it says 'die cut' in the explanation.
A cut that complex from a large run output 'that cheap' (ie. a small paper book) is the sort of job a laser is great at for the prototyping / proof of concept stage... but not for production, where the set time for each cut becomes uneconomic.
If you were to do any more than about 10 books, you'd be better off getting a die made up. Mind you, I shudder to think how much a die that ornate would cost to get right...
- of course, if you wanted to make each piece slightly unique, a laser would be the more economical path.detritus
