Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and pull out a 10-12 cup bundt pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt, and set aside.

In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter, canola oil, and sugar until well combined and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition, and add the vanilla extract. Then, add in the dry ingredients and the buttermilk in alternating additions, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Once everything has been added, beat the batter for 1-2 full minutes on medium speed, or until very smooth and well combined.

In a medium bowl, pour about 2 cups of the prepared cake batter. By hand, stir in the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, and cloves until well combined. Generously grease your cake pan with a flour-based baking spray or a butter/flour dusting. Starting with the plain cake batter, pour and swirl your batters together into your cake pan. I like to add scoops of each flavor all around the pan and then use a butter knife to swirl everything together. Bake in your preheated oven for 65-70 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes in the pan, and then turn the cake out onto a plate to cool completely before icing.
