Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch (23cm) Bundt pan with soft butter and lightly spray it with oil to prevent sticking.
In a bowl, combine the milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for 10 minutes to curdle slightly.
Stir in the sugar and mix until fully dissolved.
In a separate large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the sifted dry ingredients to the milk mixture and whisk together until fully combined.
Pour in the melted butter and stir until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
Divide the batter into three equal portions.
For the strawberry batter: Blend the freeze-dried strawberries into a fine powder (about 1/4 cup). Stir into one portion of the cake batter, adding food coloring if desired.
For the chocolate batter: Dissolve the cocoa powder into the boiling water to make a smooth paste, then stir it into the second portion of the cake batter.
Leave the third portion as vanilla.
Begin layering the batter in the Bundt pan: start with the strawberry batter, then add the vanilla batter, followed by the chocolate batter. Use a spoon or skewer to swirl the batters together for a marbled effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake feels firm to the touch.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 30 minutes before gently flipping it onto a serving plate. Tap the pan to release the cake.
While the cake cools, prepare the chocolate ganache glaze. In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate and whipping cream. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and glossy.
Pour the ganache glaze over the cooled cake and allow it to set before serving.
