Thin White Chocolate Icing Tips and Tricks


How to Make White Chocolate Glaze for Drizzling

Start by adding the white chocolate and cream to a microwave-safe mixing bowl. Melt them together, starting with 30-seconds on high, then continuing to microwave in 20-second intervals, whisking in between, until completely smooth.

Then, slowly add the powdered sugar while mixing, until you’re happy with the thickness. If you add too much and want to thin it out, carefully add a little more cream. Just a splash at a time.

How to Store White Chocolate Icing and Make it Ahead of Time

This homemade icing with white chocolate has a pretty long shelf life, so you can definitely make it ahead of time or safely store leftovers.

Keep it in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks. It will firm up in the fridge, so thin it out when you’re ready to use it by either heating it up or stirring in a little extra cream.
