Preparation
Place the almonds in food process and blend until you have small pieces then add remaining ingredients and blend until you have a smooth consistency. Press the mixture into a round form (I used 21 cm) and place in freezer for 15 min.
Place all above ingredients in a food processor and blend until you get a smooth creamy texture. Pour it on top of first layer (crust) and place it in the freezer for 1 hr.
Spread raspberries on top of frozen pink layer.
Prepare the green mixture the same way as the pink. Pour it on top of pink frozen layer. Freeze for 8 hours.
Take it out of freezer 15 minutes before serving.
