Strawberry Cream
For the strawberry cream, combine the berries and sugar in a bowl. Mix well, mashing the berries slightly and set aside for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries have softened slightly and a syrupy juice has formed. Whip the cream and yogurt with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold in the berries and syrup.

Assembling
Slice the croissants horizontally. Spread the base inside the croissants with jam, dollop with strawberry cream and top with sliced strawberries. Dust with icing sugar and serve immediately.
