What does the CANBUS Cape offer beyond what the BBB can already do?

CAN bus need a transceiver to be connected to the physical layer. This device 
transform the CAN Rx / Tx signals of the BBB into CAN low and CAN High.
 See for example : ISO 1050 - ISOLATED CAN TRANSCEIVER 

The CAN cape contains this kind of component and an EEPROM that automatically 
set the right ports in the CAN mode.

You could build your own cape with a different transceiver (with 2 supplies: 5 
or 12v for the CAN bus side and 3.3v for the BBB side) and configure yourself 
the BBB with the appropriate device tree: Enable CANBus on the BeagleBone Black
