Prepare the Cakes:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

• Grease and flour a square cake pan and a round cake pan.

• Prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions.

• Pour the batter into the square pan and the round pan, dividing evenly.

• Bake as per the package directions. Once baked, allow the cakes to cool completely.

Assemble the Heart Shape:

• Place the square cake on a flat surface, oriented as a diamond.

• Cut the round cake in half horizontally to create two half-moon shapes.

• Attach the half-moons to the top left and right sides of the square cake, forming a heart shape.

• Gently press the pieces together to adhere.

Prepare the Frosting:

• In a large bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy.

• Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and almond extract, beating until smooth and fluffy.

• Divide the frosting into three portions.

• Tint one portion with red food coloring and another with orange food coloring, leaving the third portion white.

Decorate the Cake:

• Spread a thin layer of white frosting over the entire cake.

• Drop spoonfuls of the red and orange tinted frostings onto the cake.

• Use an offset spatula to swirl the colors together, creating a marbled effect.

• Pat sprinkles onto the sides of the cake for added decoration.

Chill and Serve:

• Cover the cake and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

• Before serving, let the cake stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to soften slightly.
