Vibrant Vegan Vibes: Preparing Raw Pistachio, Coconut, and Lime Cheesecakes for a Deliciously Decadent Treat

Position a square-shaped cake pan with parchment paper, reserving it for use later.
Combine all fundamental components, transfer the mixture to a baking pan, compact it by pressing down firmly with your fingertips, and subsequently store it in the freezer.
Combine all fillings until smooth and velvety, then pour them evenly over the prepared base. Use the back of a spoon to spread the mixture smoothly, eliminating any air pockets or imperfections. Finally, refrigerate the dessert for a minimum of four hours or preferably overnight to allow it to set properly.
Retrieve contents from the freezer compartment and portion out into uniform square shapes. With the garnish artfully arranged, slice into bite-sized portions, and present with flair.
