Default need formula returning a blank cell

In cell c1 I have the formula =IF(A10,B1)
In cell B1 I have the words "count costs"
I want cell C1 to return the words "count costs" when A1 is greater than 0
(that works fine).
But if the volue in A1 = zero I want C1 to return a blank cell.

TIA for any help

It won't be blank, just look blank.

No formula can return a truly blank cell.
