Whip 1 cup cream and once thickened add the sugar one tbsp at a time
Add the fromage blanc and fold in then fold in the strawberries gelatin mixture
Pour into serving glasses evenly and place in the fridge to set, around two hours
Once theyβve set, melt the white chocolate in a bain-marie with 1/3 cup of the remain cream
