Bloom the Gelatin

Heat the Cream Mixture
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Stir frequently until the mixture is hot but not boiling, and the sugar has dissolved completely.

Add Vanilla and Gelatin
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and bloomed gelatin until well combined. Ensure the gelatin is fully dissolved.
