    You have to be careful with white chocolate, as it contains more cocoa butter than dark chocolate, so you have to adjust the chocolate:cream ratios. Here's a recipe:

    White Chocolate Ganache

    Ingredients

    227g white chocolate
    60g unsalted butter
    60ml double cream
    1 tbsp. golden syrup
    1 tbsp. dark rum or malibu

    Method

    1. Chop chocoate into small pieces, place into heatproof bowl with the butter
    2. Bring cream and golden syrup to a boil, pour over chocolate. Rest 1 minute
    3. Stir in concentric circles starting from the centre of the bowl, working outwards, for about 2 miuntes or until everything is smooth
    4. Once smooth, add the rum
    5. Let cool before using. Stores in the fright for 2 weeks

    White chocolate and coconut, and acidic (tropical) fruits pair well
