Ingredients
All ingredients used in this recipe are really simple and chances are, you already have them in your kitchen! Here’s what’s needed:
- White chocolate – the star ingredient in this recipe. I recommend using a good quality white chocolate for the best flavor and texture. You can use either white chocolate chips or chocolate bar chopped into small pieces.
- Half and half – needed to make the chocolate into syrup form. Half and half works best because it makes the syrup the best consistency. Use store-bought or make your own with 1 part milk and 1 part heavy cream.
- Vanilla bean paste – adds a wonderful sweet flavor and smell, which goes perfectly with shite chocolate. I recommend using vanilla bean paste for the best flavor, but vanilla extract works just as well.
- Salt – helps bring out the creaminess and balance out the sweetness. Only a little bit is needed, so if in doubt start with less and add more later after tasting. I recommend using fine sea salt or pink Himalayan salt.

Variations
This white chocolate syrup is really versatile in terms of ingredients as well. You can swap out some ingredients or add extra ones to make the syrup of your dreams. Here are some of my favorite ways to switch up this recipe:
- Thinner syrup – works best for drinks, where you don’t need an extra creamy sauce. To get a thinner syrup, replace half and half with only milk.
- Thicker syrup – great for drizzling over desserts like pancakes or waffles. Make the syrup thicker by replacing the half and half with heavy cream. Dilute it if necessary with a few teaspoons of milk.
- Chocolate – change up this syrup by using other types of chocolate. You can replace it with dark chocolate, semi-sweet, milk chocolate or even ruby chocolate!
- Flavors – Use other types of extract to customize the flavor of this syrup. You can add almond extract, lemon or orange, rum or butterscotch extracts for a unique flavor.
- Coffee – dissolve some instant coffee powder into the half and half for a roasted kick. Ideal for use in your coffee or to make mocha.
- Matcha – Adding a teaspoon of matcha powder will give this white chocolate syrup a wonderful grassy and floral flavor. It will also make it a beautiful green color!
- Fruit powder – Make your chocolate sauce colorful by using natural fruit powders like strawberry, blueberry or mango!

How to Serve White Chocolate Syrup

Storage and Freezing
Make ahead: This white chocolate syrup is ideal for making ahead and keeps well in the fridge. To store, allow to cool completely, then place into an airtight jar or bottle.
Storage: Store in the fridge for up to 1-2 weeks. The syrup can thicken whilst refrigerated, so either reheat it or allow to come to room temperature before using.
Freezing: I do not recommend freezing this syrup, as it can make it grainy in texture.
