1. Crush graham crackers in a plastic bag with a rolling pin until fine, even crumbs form. Mix with melted butter until evenly moistened and press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
2. Soften lemon sorbet slightly at room temperature until spreadable but not melting. Spread evenly over the graham cracker crust. Freeze for 30 minutes until firm.
3. Soften raspberry sorbet slightly and spread it carefully over the now-firm lemon sorbet layer, creating distinct layers. Freeze for another 30 minutes.
4. Decorate the top beautifully with fresh raspberries arranged like jewels, bright lemon zest, and fresh mint leaves for color contrast.
5. Freeze the cake for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely firm. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving for easiest cutting.
