Make the preserve by adding all the ingredients mentioned until preserve and cook on a medium low flame until it  reduces and thickens a bit. Should resemble like a very runny jam. Let it cool. 

In a small bowl bloom and dissolve gelatine in 1/4 cup water  


To make the filling, add cream cheese, vanilla and beat for few seconds until mixed. 

Add half of the strawberry preserve, melted white chocolate and fold gently. 

In another bowl whip double cream with some icing sugar and beat  until peaks are formed. 

Add whipped cream to the cream cheese mix and fold. 

Add gelatine and fold. 

Pour the filling on top of the biscuit base and let it chill for 2-3 hours. 


Topping 

Bloom and dissolve gelatine in 1/8 cup of water. Add this to the remaining strawberry preserve and mix well. Pour it on top of the cheesecake and let it chill again for few hours or overnight. 

Finally decorate the cheesecake with some whipped cream and fresh strawberries. 

Remove from the loose bottomed pan carefully and enjoy !
