I actually saw these chips in the store yesterday. I was planning on making sour cream ganache this week. Anyway, those aren't a true white chocolate, but they do have some cocoa butter in them. I'm wondering if this is making the difference in your result. 

 

Don't forget, ladies, that if cocoa butter isn't the first or second ingredient, it's not really white chocolate. has anyone tried a sour cream ganache?

I know this thread is a few years old, but I wanted to thank you all for your input!  I was finally able to make a PERFECT white chocolate ganache!  It worked for me by using regular cream (US version) and not "heavy whipping cream".
