Well, it's still called a blanca... actually it's called a cedar top blanca[8|]
It's difficult to say in words, the difference in sound and the builder is very important in this aspect. As something general, you can say that Cedar gives you a rounder sound, it has more midrange emphassis and drives very well in arpeggios etc. It does not have the brilliance of spruce and the rasgueados might be a little muddyer. and not so sharp and distorted as on spruce.
The cipres/cedar combo opens up easyer and is somewhat easyer to play + they can be loud. I've tried some very nice ones, but I must admit I'm very much a spruce man[8D]
