I know it's been a long time since you posted this, and It's about 2:30 am here, so if I see a response later today when I'm fully awakethat you're still interested, I'll give you more details. For now, let me say I've been making a really good raspberry ganache in white chocolate and I do it primarily by making a pureed raspberry reduction, reducing down to 1/4 the original volume of the puree. I typically start this with frozen raspberries. The consistency I end up with is something of a sticky paste. I also, because I'm able to get it, add some freeze dried powdered raspberries to the puree before I reduce and also to the ganache itself. Let me know if you want recipes.

Cool, so the raspberry reduction, as of yesterday at least, consists of an entire bag of frozen raspberries, which is a little over 3 cups according to the package, dumped directly into a saucepan from frozen. I let it cook down until it loses that "wet" look, about an hour to an hour and a half. After that, let it cool enough to throw in the food processor or blender, and finally strain to get most of the seeds out.
The ganache recipe is:
1/2c heavy cream
1T unsalted soft butter
20 oz white chocolate
1/4c of the raspberry reduction
1 oz (by weight) freeze dried raspberries
I tend to go heavy on the chocolate with white chocolate ganaches, cause I like the firmness.

The headline says it all: United Cacao: the sad tale of when things really go wrong for Aim investors .
Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
