White Chocolate Fondant Recipe For You

• 9 ounces Ghirardelli or another high quality brand of white chocolate, finely chopped
• 1 ounce cocoa butter
• 7 tablespoons light corn syrup
• 1 pound rolled fondant
• Cornstarch, for dusting, if needed

Set a heatproof bowl over a pan of water; bring water just to a boil. Remove pan with bowl from heat.

Put white chocolate and cocoa butter in the bowl; stir just until melted. Remove bowl from pan; stir in corn syrup. Pour mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap; fold sides in to cover. Let stand at room temperature overnight.

Knead the mixture to soften, then knead it into the pre made rolled fondant until it is well incorporated (if it sticks, sprinkle work surface with cornstarch). Wrap in plastic; let rest overnight.

Before using, microwave fondant on medium power for 5-second intervals until pliable.

Other ways to use White chocolate

• Melted it can be added to buttercream for a delicious filling.
• Mock mousse can be made by folding the melted chocolate into Whipped cream.
• Put a small melted amount into a paper piping cone, snip a tiny hole from the tip and write a message onto a cake. This works well with a darker background. TIP: add a tiny amount of oil to thin it out before adding it to your cone.
