Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your cake pans by greasing and flouring two 9-inch round pans.In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set this aside.In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.One at a time, add the eggs, mixing well after each addition, then beat in the vanilla and almond extracts.Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the flour mixture until just combined.Separate the batter into three bowls: one for red, one for blue, and one that remains white.Add red food coloring to one bowl and blue to another until you achieve your desired hue.In each prepared cake pan, alternate dollops of the red, white, and blue batter. Use a knife to swirl them gently for a marbled effect.Place the pans in the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.Once completely cooled, stack the layers with your favorite frosting in between and spread a layer of frosting on top. - Prep Time: 30 minutes
