Blanca Fernanda de la Cerda y Lara (c. 1317 – 1347) was a Spanish noblewoman.

She was the daughter of Fernando de la Cerda (1275–1322) and Juana Núñez de Lara, called "la Palomilla".

Blanca was the second wife of Juan Manuel, Duke of Peñafiel (1282–1349), a member of the junior branch of the Castilian royal house. Their daughter Juana Manuel of Castile married the (illegitimate) Henry II of Castile and became Queen consort of Castile.

Blanca Fernanda de la Cerda was a direct ancestor of King Juan Carlos of Spain and many other European nobles.
